Paulding FFA Members Receive FFA Jacket from Blue Jacket Program
By: Staci Miller, FFA Advisor
On November 10th, the Ohio Foundation announced the list of members who will receive a FFA jacket through the Ohio FFA Foundation’s Blue Jacket program.
The Paulding FFA had several first-year members apply to receive a jacket by filling out a few essay questions about their future plans in the FFA program.
We are excited to announce that 8 Paulding FFA members were selected to receive a jacket. Those members were Daniella Borland, Kane Garber, Lincoln Manz, Makenna Manz, Aleah Matty, Taelynn Parrett, Leonel Reyes, and Elliot Roughton. There were over 1,100 students across the state of Ohio who applied for a jacket.
These members were part of the 366 jackets that were donated to first-year Ohio FFA members! Opportunities like this are not possible without the generous support of our local Beck’s dealers and donors across the state. These members were very excited to be selected and are looking forward to wearing their Paulding FFA jacket with pride throughout their high school careers.
Congratulations again to all these members and a special thanks to Paulding County Farm Bureau, Wenninger Seed Service Inc. and AgVantage Seed Center for sponsoring our jackets through this program. We are so thankful for the wonderful community support of our FFA Chapter!
