Well, it was that time again!!!!!! YES! Farm Show.
only the greatest thing to happen to Pennsylvania every year. Farm show attracts all walks of life for various reasons. It is a place to learn, be entertained, and yes.. eat! the Pa Farm Show has some of the best eats around. There is something else amazing at Farm Show though, the students! Every year hundreds of Pa FFA member attend this great event. They are truly what make this event what it is today. Thy come to receive awards, set up booths, and create displays, and be seen. What these students do is seen by the entire state, which is pretty awesome by any standard. This year my cooperating center created a landscaping display and an informative booth. their booth was on Pa deer. this a subject on everyone's minds considering the time of year. they were teaching the public how to score their antlers. the booth include a television that playing an informative easy to follow video on the scoring process. The booth display also included a very nice buck mount which captured the eye and drew you in. It was a very nice display and the kids did a great job with it. They really enjoyed having their work seen by everyone, and were more than happy to pose with their plaque. Go Team! By the end of this week the kids were no strangers to photos however. They made it into the Gettysburg paper. I was very proud of them. Their Ag teachers, Mr. Howell and Mrs. Miller definitely set them up for success and supported them like any good Ag teacher would. A side bonus was that it was Mr.Howells birthday this week and the kids got him a little birthday present to show their appreciation.. can you say ..tiara!!! This year the theme for the displays was the birds and the bees. the student participated by creating and adorable little display with a fountain in the middle. that fountain brought the kids some money as the guest of the farm show were tossing in coins.
