Thank you to everyone who joined us for our second annual FFA Banquet as an official chapter this year. We honored several students in the areas of:
•Committee Engagement
•Career Development Excellence or Leadership Development Excellent
•Discovery Degrees
•Greenhand Degree
•Retiring Officers
•Swearing in of a new advisor (Mr. Regner) and officers for the FFA year 2026-2027
As our wise senior graduate, Kaylee Leach, mentioned in her retiring address “Agriculture is not just farming but the people and the community”. We also recognized community members who have help supported us along the way. On June 2nd, we awarded Mr. David Kragnes and Ms. Kayla Lauer the highest award that any distinguished community member can achieve from the DGF chapter, the Honorary Chapter Degree.
Mr. David Kragnes (pictured below) has received this award for his contributions to our chapter that has helped set the foundation during his time serving with Co-Bank.
Ms. Kayla Lauer has received this award for her contributions for starting the FFA program as a club before the DGF FFA became a chapter.
We are grateful for our community partners who believe in the future of agriculture and our young leaders.
