The Pendleton County FFA chapter has been recognized in the 2024 National Chapter Award Program from the National FFA Organization.
The program recognizes outstanding FFA chapters throughout the country that actively implement the mission and strategies of the organization. These chapters improve chapter operations using the National Quality FFA Chapter Standards and a program of activities that emphasizes growing leaders, building communities and strengthening agriculture. Chapters are rewarded for providing educational experiences for the entire membership.
Chapters that received star ratings during judging this summer and will be recognized Oct. 23 – 26 at the 97th National FFA Convention & Expo in Indianapolis.
All star-rated FFA chapters receive honors made possible by corporate sponsor John Deere and New Holland.
“New Holland is proud to recognize and celebrate the exemplary FFA chapters that are part of the National Chapter Award Program,” said Mark Lowery, director of network development at New Holland. “They are successfully enriching their communities and preparing FFA members to be the future leaders of our company and industry, which is important work that we are honored to support.”
