Spanish Fork FFA had three students who moved on from the Area level to compete in the proficiency awards. On February 12 they were judged and the state winners were announced. The following were named winners from our chapter. Tori R: Landscape Management Kirsty S: Vegetable Production Kaitlin H: Diversified Livestock, Swine Production, and Ag Mechanics. The state only allows you to win one division so Kaitlin has chosen to move on in the Diversified Livestock area. These students will receive awards at State FFA Convention held March 10-12. In addition they will move on to represent the state of Utah at the National Level this summer. We appreciate their dedication to the Supervised Agricultural Experience program.

Alumni banquet
General Pictures
This year the officers decided they wanted to acknowledge the history that our chapter has and hold an auction as a fundraiser. The Alumni banquet was a great way to recognize past officer teams, members, and supporters. In addition we recognized those who have helped our chapter and held a very successful auction. We look forward to establishing this tradition within our chapter. Thanks to the community support that we had that evening there were around 125 people in attendance and we raised funds that will help with future FFA endeavors.
