“This summer has been very busy for the Brownwood FFA,” said BHS Ag teacher, Chelsea Wilson noting the scholarships awarded to Lewis and Day. “They have attended the Area IV FFA Leadership Camp at the Texas 4-H Center at Lake Brownwood, and they also attended the State FFA Convention.”
“We also had 6 students receive their Lone Star Degrees,” added Wilson. “This is the highest degree they can receive in FFA as a high school member.”
Brownwood FFA students are already gearing up for another busy year, and BHS FFA advisors, Cade and Chelsea Wilson expressed their enthusiasm for this year’s events, “We are extremely excited about the upcoming year and everything it includes.”
