Salisbury FFA Chapter

Whoa it’s been a hectic few weeks for Salisbury FFA! Christmas Break, then a longer break, PSI and then another day off!

We are back with our throwback Thursday post, as we fight this very cold weather, we like to think of warmer days. Maybe you’re eager to barbecue, swim or be able to feed cows without battling frostbite! Here are a few throwback photos to remind you of summer. We have photos featured from the 1960’s, 70’s, 80’s and 90’s!

If you have any stories about these photos, feel free to comment them. Let us know what you’d like to see, and most of all have a wonderful week!

Saturday Miss Briana Ponder and Miss Cate Atkinson had the fantastic opportunity to attend the Missouri Public Speaking Institute. There they learned how not only to become better speakers, but to also inspire the ones they speak to. These two girls are a great example of the leaders growing strong in the Salisbury FFA. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, this community should be proud of the seeds they’ve sown!

Happy Throwback Thursday!

As the year winds down, and Christmas grows closer we’ve taken a look at some FFA events that take place in December. Fruit sales, fall trip and public speaking contests. Events are slowing down for now, but we look forward to updating you when the New Year comes. Have a Merry Christmas from the Salisbury FFA.

In honor of today being Fruit Sales Day, today’s Throwback Thursday is from the 90s with photos of former members organizing their products to deliver to customers. Fruit Sales is an FFA tradition that has provided a generous amount of our chapters funds for years, all made possible by the community’s unwavering support. We are looking forward to delivering your products in the next few days!

Fruit sales arrive today. Be on the lookout for your delivery’s!

This Throwback Thursday happens to fall on Thanksgiving, which is a time to think about things we are thankful for.

Many FFA members can tell you that they are extremely thankful for the opportunities that have been available to them! We’ve done many things in the past few months, just for a few examples:

Food For America
Had a trap team compete at state
Cleaned up the volleyball court
Barnwarming
National Convention
And a successful fall banquet
(All pictured)

Though we are most thankful for the community that we live in! Our community is always a supporter of the Salisbury FFA. Thank you for making all of this possible, have a Happy Thanksgiving!

Today’s Throwback Thursday is provided by our chapter reporter, Lydea Britt.

Supervised Agricultural Experiences (SAE’s) have been a huge part of our organization’s history. These projects build student’s agricultural skills, life experience, and responsibility. In honor of our freshmen students receiving their Greenhand degree this past week, requiring their personal plan for an SAE, today we honor our student’s SAE’s over the decades from our Salisbury FFA Chapter.

Huge shout out to Salisbury FFA member Alexis Breuklander for having a very successful SAE. Alexis breeds and sells blue healer - red healer cross puppies as part of her SAE and is one of 26,968 Missouri FFA members that generate 70 million dollars in SAE income every year.

What's even cooler about Alexis? Her famous customer base for one. Her pups must be something special to draw in such affluent clientele, including Miami Dolphins Quarterback, Skylar Thompson and teammates. That's right, recently Alexis sent a puppy home with its new owner to Miami Florida via a private jet.

Awesome job Alexis!
