Haley Haverback Reporter MY ROLE
I am the Reporter for the Geneseo Chapter. I am the backbone of the communication aspect for the chapter. I take pictures, create a scrapbook, and update the website and Facebook page. I represent the chapter when competing at various Career Development Events.
FOND MEMORIES I have had so much fun throughout the last three years in FFA, so it becomes hard to narrow it down to just one thing. For me some of the most fun memories have taken place in Mr. Stahl’s room. With every award we bring home there are hours and hours of hard work and persistence that went into winning it. I love spending my weeknights selling lawnmowers to my classmates, or making a motion to never have homework. Overall it is those nights that lead to the opportunities and in turn, fun, that goes with winning.
COMMUNITY Many communities have a chapter, yet there are a few things that separate us from the rest. One of those things is an established alumni. A chapter is only as strong as the people who support us. We could not ask for a stronger support system from the community. Another thing is the students. Our chapter has students who want to compete, and want to be successful. We have seen the success from the students who have come before us and try to live up to these high expectations.
OUR SUCCESS FFA is the biggest youth organization in the Nation. The Geneseo FFA Chapter was establish in 1929 and has been successful throughout its course. This becomes obvious when you come into town and see all of the state winning signs from our chapter. Our chapter is very well known for competing successfully in the contests. Many people within the community have little idea what the contests we compete in are. FFA mission statement is premier leadership, personal growth, career success. The contests we compete in allow us to gain these skills in the field of agriculture.
