16th Annual FFA Auction
VOLUME
16
ISSUE
More than $23,000 was raised at the annual FFA auction held at the ND State Fair in Minot, thanks to the generosity of the donors listed below. The foundation also hosted a reception for advisors, past and present, following the auction. This year’s auction also showcased the 3rd Annual State Officer Auction Basket Challenge. More than eight past ND state officer teams competed for the title and “baby bison”, crowning them the highest earning team. It was a close competition, but for the second year in a row the title and traveling trophy went to the 1991-92 team. Daryl Lies and Bridgette (Hoffmeyer) Readel were in the audience to accept the baby bison on the team’s behalf. Each year funds generated from the auction support travel to National FFA Convention for deserving ND FFA members who have earned their way by winning career development events (CDEs) and proficiencies based on success in their supervised agricultural experiences (SAEs). Funds also support scholarships to Washington Leadership Conference presented by the ND FFA Alumni.
Thank you for your support!
