Taran 2019 FFA

“This is my second year in FFA and I’m currently the Quincy FFA Chapter Treasurer. FFA has taken me all across the country and around the state. One of the coolest things I have got to do in the FFA is to travel to Indianapolis, Indiana in October of last year to represent the Washington FFA Association in the Hall of State Competition. Quincy won the Hall of Chapters competition in May at State Convention and then the opportunity to go to Nationals. The Hall of States allowed us to prepare a trade show booth to promote both Washington Agriculture and the Washington FFA to the 60,000 plus kids at the convention. We shook hands and talked to kids and adults from all over the country.  And the coolest thing was that after three days and 3 bottles of hand sanitizer we ended up 3rd in the Nation. FFA has helped me in school because it forced me to come out of my shell, to talk in front of people, and to be comfortable in my own skin. It has pushed me out of my comfort zone and has helped me build a bigger box. The skills I have learned through competing in FFA and through FFA activities will serve me well the rest of my life.”
