Great projects today at the California FFA State Finals for Ag Mechanics Fair hosted by the Fresno city Welding Program. Kolby won the state championship for division 2, implements of husbandry with an aluminum livestock popper first created at the Fresno City Fab Contest. Levi won the state championship in division 4, trailers and flatbeds with the 5x8 utility trailer that took home 2nd place in the Fresno ROP sparks and sawdust competition earlier this spring. Lucas had the 3rd high in food processing and cookers with his reverse flow offset smoker and finally Vitaly was 4th high in food processing and cookers with a double Santa Maria Grill. Crazy part of the day was we were in the 3 way tie for the overall high team, but when broken by the tie breaker we are still proud of our 3rd place finish. Can’t wait to see what projects make the show next year!
