The Appling County High and Middle School FFA Chapters will celebrate National FFA Week February 19-26.
‘Infinite Potential’ is the theme this year and it embodies all the best about FFA members, from the most recognizable symbol of the organization, the blue corduroy jacket, a symbol of pride and tradition, to the bright future of agriculture and the traditions of leadership and hard work. More than half a million members around the nation and over 250 in Appling County will participate in National FFA Week.
As a part of National FFA Week, The Appling County Board of Commissions passed a proclamation proclaiming this week FFA week in Appling County, during last week’s board meeting. Board Members Ronnie Rentz, Jasper Tomberlin, Theodore Wilkerson, Sarah Boatright, and Chairman Lewis Parker unanimously passed the resolution.
Appling County FFA members are the leaders of tomorrow. They are well-mannered, perceptive and willing to help others through community service. They are success-oriented students who are driven to achieve their goals. FFA gives many young people an important push to consider their futures- what kind of people, citizens and professionals they intend to be.
FFA builds leaders, and leaders impact the future.
