2015 National FFA
Week is Feb' 21-28
BISMARCK, N.D. -- The ND
FFA will celebrate National FFA
Week Feb. 21-28, 2015. Go All
Out is the theme this year and
more than 4800 FFA members
across North Dakota will partici-
pate in FFA Week activities.
Going All Out is not only a
way of life for FFA members, but
it's also a call to action for others.
FFA members set a positive ex-
ample with their leadership, work
ethic, and community service ac-
tivities. The focus of National FFA
Week is to tell America about the
great opportunities available for
youth in agriculture. From its be-
ginnings in 1928 as the Future
Farmers of America, the National
FFA Organization today reaches
out to all 50 states, Puerto Rico,
and the Virgin Islands. From
urban to rural schools, FFA is
committed to developing charac-
ter and leadership skills and
preparing members for a lifetime
of success in one of hundreds of
careers in agriculture.
FFA chapters across the state
are celebrating National FFA
Week by planning special events
like community service projects,
FFA awareness, and farm safety
workshops. Parshall FFA advisor,
Julie Woodbury says, "Farm Food
is a big hit with our school staff
annually. Students prepare the
food and invite staff members to
lunch." In Maddock, members
decorate t-shirts for auction at
their annual T's for Tools event.
Community members and local
businesses bid on the shirts and
proceeds help fund needed tools
and materials for the agriculture
mechanics lab.
North Dakota boasts the high-
est per capita membership in the
United States, with 80 chapters in
communities throughout the state.
FFA students are future chemists,
veterinarians, government offi-
cials, entrepreneurs, international
business leaders, teachers and pre-
mier professionals in numerous
other careers. Transferrable life
skills are the basis for the ag edu-
cation curriculum and therefore
are not only instrumental in help-
ing students develop their interests
but their future careers.
