During National FFA Week the focus is generally on the the students. However the students involved in the Central A&M FFA chapter all want to shine the light back on their community for all the support they give. Two officers with the Central A&M FFA program, Vice President Spencer Uphoff and President Ella Forlines, praised the Assumption and Mowequa community.

Central A&M’s FFA chapter is always happy to give back to the community. Even if COVID-19 has limited it to small gestures, Forlines says they still want to find a way to show their appreciation.

Among the members of the chapter, they recently held the Ag Olympics to celebrate National FFA Week, which included a game of life size Hungry Hungry Hippos.

Uphoff says he considers their chapter and its members to be the most tight knit group he’s been a part of.

Uphoff and Forlines appeared as guests on the Newstalk WTIM Morning Show during National FFA Week.
