For the eighth time in the past nine years the Zane Trace FFA has been recognized with a Gold Rating for being among the top 10% of Ohio’s 346 FFA Chapters as part of the National Chapter Award program.
The award is based on the Chapter’s annual program of activities, which included events designed to strengthen agriculture, build communities and develop leadership among members. Throughout the past year the Chapter conducted their annual sausage breakfast, led elementary lessons over agricultural topics and engaged members in maple syrup production and a woods clean up among other activities.
“The FFA officers and members would like to thank the entire Zane Trace community for their continued support of the Agriculture program and FFA Chapter” according to Zane Trace High School Agriculture Instructor/FFA Advisor Jennifer Johnson.
