Our busiest time of the year is continuing, and Nipomo FFA has risen to the challenge. As we are rapping up our CDE season, our teams travelled to Fresno CA, for State Finals and Field Day! There we found success as our very own Tyler Korsberg was 2nd overall in the State for Prepared Public Speaking! We also had state finalists, Brielle Keller for Impromptu, Griffin Groshart for Job Interview, and Emma Uclaray who placed 6th in the state for Prepared! Congratulations to all those that competed in a competitive contest! That same weekend, our Farm Power and Machinery judging team had their state finals and were 7th! Along with that we had Livestock Judging and Floral CDE teams compete and do well! We look forward to their state finals in May at Cal Poly! On Monday the 13th, we had 23 applicants that applied for chapter office with the following slate being finalised!
