The Department of Agriculture wishes to congratulate the high-point individuals from each Career Development Event that was held at Southern Arkansas University for the Southern District CDE's. Because of the students' hard work and dedication, each student will receive a $1,000 scholarship to SAU which was made possible by the SAU Foundation among others invested in FFA. Good luck at the state contest on Friday!
Claire Walston is from Mena High School. She was the high-point individual in the Livestock Judging contest. One big goal that Claire wants to achieve is to become an All-American Junior College Livestock Judge. After college, she would like to become a 4-H Extention Agent for Polk County and operate her own show pig operation called Grand Drive Genetics! I love all the memories that I have made in FFA with my friends and ag teachers.
