Happy New Year, Sisters! I hope you all enjoyed spending time with family and friends this holiday season and reflected on your blessings. We are extremely excited to have activated two new chapters in the fall semester. Congratulations to the Gamma Eta Chapter at Utah State University and the Gamma Theta Chapter at West Texas A&M! Welcome to the sisterhood! As I enter my last semester as your National President, I want to focus on the strategic plan and make sure all the tasks are moving forward. We spent a lot of our time last semester collecting and entering data, into our system and setting up our system for future reporting. We have also worked on a couple of tasks to enhance our alumnae engagement. Speaking of our alumnae, Sigma Alpha wouldn’t be where it is today without all the volunteers. With the spring semester starting, we will be looking for several volunteers. You can commit as little as a few hours as a virtual awards judge or make a bigger commitment and serve on the National Sorority Board or as a Chapter Consultant. Volunteering in any capacity is a wonderful way to give back to the sorority and help provide a great experience for active members. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or would like to volunteer.
Finally, I want to congratulate the four alumnae who were selected as Spirit of Ruth recipients. We look forward to seeing some of you at Leadership Seminars in February and March. In Sisterhood,
Kim Neumann National Sorority Board President nationalpresident@sigmaalpha.org

While we generally associate growing seasons with spring, summer and warm weather, this fall served as a great time to grow our organization at new universities. The Development Director position has the pleasure of working with passionate young women interested in bringing Sigma Alpha to their campus and this fall we expanded to two new universities. As a National Sorority we activated the Gamma Eta chapter at Utah State University and the Gamma Theta chapter at West Texas A&M University this fall.
Through an introduction at the National FFA Convention in the Fall of 2022, we were able to work with some wonderful staff members at Utah State University to develop relationships and recruit an interest group of young ladies in the spring semester to complete the chapter in development process in the fall of 2023. The Gamma Eta chapter is our first chapter in the state of Utah! From day one, the staff and faculty at Utah State University have been welcoming and excited about bringing our organization to their campus to offer opportunities to their students. We are so thankful to have worked with Makenna, Lisa and Ian on coordination of meetings and believing in our organization and considering us an asset to the college. With their aid we were able to activate 15 charter members of the Gamma Eta chapter who have already hosted excellent pillar-based events.
Talk about a motivated group of young ladies! From one interested young woman to a group of over 20, the Gamma Theta chapter hit the ground running. As the weeks of the semester wound down, this group of charter members worked hard to complete all steps of the membership candidate education program to be activated right before finals week. With the help of their advisor Kendall Samuelson, an alumna from the Alpha Iota chapter, we were able to activate a charter class of 21 young ladies AND several more interested in a spring recruitment! These ladies were able to connect and complete a food drive, a fellowship event, and garner interest in their spring recruitment during their chapter in the development process. We are so excited to welcome both these chapters to Sigma Alpha and watch them grow and develop over the upcoming years.
In Sisterhood,

Every semester, the sisters of the Beta Gamma chapter go on an ag tour, which entails visiting a new place, either in or out of state, to learn about the agricultural industries of these areas. Our sisters look forward to bonding with those in and out of our chapter, visiting various farms and productions, and exploring local areas and culture. We arrived in Columbus, Georgia with a full itinerary and were excited about what the weekend would hold! On our first day, we visited Auburn University to meet the Beta Eta chapter. While here, we received a tour of their campus, compared differences between curricula, visited Auburn landmarks and connected with their sisters. Afterward, we fueled up at the fan-favorite Buc-ee’s and then drove to Blue Ribbon Dairy Farm, where we would meet with more members of the Beta Eta chapter to tour their dairy operation. We learned on this tour that their cattle procedures do vary from those in Florida to properly supply for this area’s demand and climate. After our tour, we bought homemade ice cream from the farm to enjoy with our sisters from Auburn, while mingling and petting dozens of animals ranging from calves to kittens. We loved spending time with the girls of the Beta Eta chapter and appreciated their hospitality.
Despite the rainy weather, the next morning we set off to visit Providence Canyon State Park to hike inside the beautiful red and orange canyons which resulted from an agricultural disaster due to soil erosion in the 1800s. Although this hike was very fun to explore nature and see sites some of our sisters had never seen before, we thoroughly enjoyed learning about the interesting soil science of this canyon. Our resident soil, water, and ecosystem sciences major sat with us and explained why some soil types exist in this canyon, its appearance and its texture. By the end of our hike, we walked out covered in orange clay from exploring every facet of the canyons. After this, we took a tour of Omaha Brewing Company to learn about their brewing processes. Although their production is very similar to those in Florida, for sisters who have not explored this aspect of agriculture, there was a lot to learn from the growing of muscadine grapes to bottling and distributing. Finally, we ended our day with a PowerPoint night where we made slideshows about topics of our choosing, ranging from “What Dog Breeds Are Our Sisters?” and “Top 10 Funniest News Headlines from States in the U.S.”.

Growing up in Clermont, Fla., surrounded by vast orange groves, Avery LeFils’ childhood was steeped in the refreshing scent of citrus. While her family wasn't directly involved in agriculture, her fascination with horses and the outdoors sparked an early interest in the farming world. It wasn't until high school, when LeFils joined FFA, that she truly delved into the diverse facets of agriculture, setting the stage for her future career. LeFils attended the University of Florida where she pursued a degree in agricultural education and communications and a specialization in communications, coupled with a minor in leadership development. It was during her time in college that she discovered Sigma Alpha, the sorority that would become a cornerstone of her agricultural journey. LeFils joined Sigma Alpha in 2009 as a junior and served as the first vice president during her senior year. She also served as a UF College of Agricultural and Life Sciences (CALS) ambassador and engaged with other organizations such as Agricultural Communicators of Tomorrow and Alpha Tau Alpha, the professional society for agricultural communications majors. Post-college, LeFils’ career in agriculture took flight. She worked with the Florida Fruit and Vegetable Association for five years in membership communications, gaining valuable insights into the industry. Subsequently, she served as a marketing coordinator for Village Farms, a leading hydroponic tomato company, before assuming her current role as the Senior Manager of Industry Relations and Communications for Florida Dairy Farmers in January 2020. Despite the demands of her professional life, staying connected with Sigma Alpha and agriculture remains a priority. Although LeFils’ involvement on the alumni board has shifted due to job responsibilities, she makes it a point to attend events hosted by UF’s college of agriculture where Sigma Alpha is present, fostering a sense of community and shared values. A recent highlight in LeFils’ agricultural journey was being honored, alongside her husband Bernie, with the Excellence in Agriculture Award from the Florida Farm Bureau Federation. This recognition celebrates individuals whose primary income is not subject to production risk but who actively contribute to the agricultural sector. “This award is especially meaningful to us, acknowledging the dedication we pour into both our personal and professional roles in serving the agricultural community,” said LeFils. “As recipients, we have the privilege of representing Florida at the national competition in Salt Lake City.” As LeFils reflects on her Sigma Alpha journey, she has some personal and professional advice for sisters. “Cherish the time spent with friends and sisters in college, as it may be the last period where you're in such close proximity to your closest companions,” said LeFils. “While academic achievements are important, focus on building positive relationships and presenting yourself professionally – you never know when these connections may open doors in your career.”
As her agricultural journey continues, LeFils remains committed to the principles instilled by Sigma Alpha, the lessons learned from FFA and the enduring love for the agricultural world that began in the orange groves of her hometown.

Dr. Blake started at Auburn University in 2009 aiming to be a small animal veterinarian through the College of Math and Sciences, but she was put into the College of Agriculture by mistake. It was singularly one of the best things that could have happened to her. She didn’t grow up on a farm, wasn’t a member of 4H or FFA, and grew up in the suburbs of Mobile, Alabama. Being part of the College of Agriculture provided Dr. Blake with exposure and experience to the world of Agriculture and food animal production. Dr. Blake joined Sigma Alpha (Beta Eta Chapter) in the fall of 2009. She graduated in 2013 with her Pre-Vet Animal Science Degree, cum laude; in 2014 earned her Masters of Agriculture in Muscle Food & Meat Science focused on Pork Quality. She was accepted into the Auburn University College of Veterinary Medicine program and started in August 2014. She graduated AUCVM in 2018, cum laude. Dr. Blake was hired by JBS Live Pork in June of 2018 and moved to Russellville, Arkansas to begin work as a field veterinarian. At the beginning of her career with JBS, she oversaw 45,000 commercial sows, 10,000 multiplier and nucleus sows along with the associated gilt flows, and boar studs. In January of 2024, Dr. Blake accepted the role of Multiplication Flow Veterinarian for all JBS Live Pork. This adjusted the scope of her role to include oversight of all genetic flows and boar studs company wide.
Dr. Blake married her husband David in 2019 and had her daughter Zoey in October of 2022. Outside of work she spends time chasing around her toddler, boating on the lake ar their house, and walking their two dogs Maya, a golden retriever, and Baxter a husky-mix who was her vet hool surgery dog.

Throughout my professional journey, I have had the privilege of working at three membership associations within the agriculture industry. Associations have proven to be an ideal arena for the intersection of my passions and skill set. My academic background includes studies in agricultural education and animal science at Cornell University, where I discovered my affinity for marketing, communications, and informal education through coursework and internships. During my tenure at the Animal Agriculture Alliance, I focused on fostering impactful partnerships with key players in agriculture to bridge the gap between food producers and consumers. My efforts were dedicated to empowering farmers and ranchers to advocate for animal agriculture and secure their livelihoods. During the past three years, I dedicated my efforts to the U.S. Beet Sugar Association, where I led stakeholder engagement and supported federal lobbying initiatives on behalf of the nation’s farmer-owned beet sugar cooperatives. Recently, I was appointed to the newly created position of Vice President of Regulatory and Legislative Affairs at the Northeast Dairy Producer Association (NEDPA). In this capacity, I represent the organization to New York State and federal legislators, regulators, and industry partners. NEDPA serves as a voice for progressive New York dairy producers at the state and federal levels. My responsibilities encompass building relationships, fostering producer involvement, conducting thorough analysis, effective communication, collaboration, and continuous learning.
Drawing parallels between the sugarbeet and dairy industries, I recognize the unwavering commitment of both sectors to continuous improvement. Farmers embrace innovation, adopt modern technologies, and engage in research to enhance the efficiency and sustainability of their operations. U.S. farmers produce 13% more sugar on 8% less land than 20 years ago. From 2007 to 2017, U.S. dairy farmers used 30% less water, 21% less land, and achieved a 19% reduction in the carbon footprint of a gallon of milk. By 2050, the dairy industry is collectively committed to achieving greenhouse gas neutrality.
Dairy and sugarbeet farmers are environmental stewards and committed to preserving the land for future generations. Dairy and sugarbeet farmers are not merely cultivators of the land; they are pillars of their communities. These farms, most of which are family farms, and processing facilities serve as economic drivers, creating jobs, supporting local businesses, and fostering a sense of community pride. The well-being and development of the workforce are paramount. Both dairy and sugarbeet farmers prioritize employee safety, provide training and resources, and invest in educational Page 10
programs for employees. The economic stability of these sectors ripples through local communities, contributing to the overall prosperity of the regions they call home. Farmers in both sectors recognize the importance of economic viability. Both the dairy and beet sugar industries are comprised of farmer-owned cooperatives. Both industries are currently faced with the challenges of inflation, supply chain issues, and thin margins. Dairy producers have to navigate pricing set by Federal Milk Marketing Orders. Sugarbeet growers need specialized equipment which requires considerable investment. While there are many challenges, most farmers hope to persevere and secure a legacy for future generations. Recognized as trusted voices in policy and decision-making corridors, farmers from both sectors play a crucial role in shaping legislation that impacts their businesses. The upcoming Farm Bill in 2024 holds particular significance, providing a safety net for farmers and supporting farmer-led, incentive-based conservation programs along with crucial food security and nutrition programs. Advocating for farmers is a privilege, and I consider working within associations to be a fulfilling career journey. This path is truly exceptional for individuals who have a passion for agriculture, an interest in communications or policy, and possess strong organizational and management skills. Written By:

Sigma Alpha had an exceptional presence at the 2023 National FFA Convention in Indianapolis, Indiana. At the trade show booth, we were able to connect with over 100 Sigma Alpha alumnae sisters, over 200 collegiate sisters, many members’ friends and families, thousands of middle and high school students and countless industry professionals. Sigma Alpha had four National Leadership Team members, one alumna and two collegiate members volunteer their time to represent the sorority. The leadership team members in attendance included Katelyn Zeamer, Tasha Moser King, Brooke Carter Green, and Carleigh Dubry. Our alumna volunteer was Becky Dobbins (Beta), and the collegiate volunteer members were Lauren Murtagh (Eta) and Alayna Stapleton (Beta Nu). We greatly appreciate the help with talking to expo attendees about Sigma Alpha and reconnecting with our alumna and collegiate sisters! At this year's event, we aimed to recognize all 73 chapters on our Instagram story throughout the week of expo. Although we didn’t quite meet our goal, we did have representation from over 50 chapters and had so much fun with this activity!
Another new thing we tried this year, was an alumna giveaway. One lucky sister, Alysha Lawless, alumna from the Virginia Tech chapter, was our winner. We hope you stop by next year to see what other activities we implement! We are proud of the 25 collegiate members who received their American Degree; the highest awarded degree achievable by FFA members.
