The customers could chose from red, pink, white, or a combination of colors for their purchase. Each vase arrangement included five or six flowers, greenery, Baby’s Breathe, and a card with a personalized message. The members spent one morning to take a trip to visit Baisch and Skinner wholesale supplier. We were able to get a tour of the facilities as well as a little practice on our floriculture identification skills. After picking up our flowers and feeling inspired we headed back to school. After completing them all, the handmade arrangements were delivered on Valentine' Day to the different school buildings in our district as well as the community of Highland. Seeing the smile on an unexpecting face made the whole experience worth while. </span></div>

In prepartion for taxidermy, the class has been skinning and washing the animals. Some of the animals are coyotes, a beaver, and deer.

<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Every year the Doniphan West FFA Chapter offers a helping hand in preparing our town for the holiday season. The Nursery/Landscape and Ag Communication classes gathered greenery and poinsettias to fill flower planters up and down Main Street. Member Kassiday Blevins states, "Being able to add some cheerful color and Christmas Spirit to the Highland community not only makes yourself feel better, but brings a smile to others" about her experience. Other FFA members decorated Degginger Park for the winter season by hanging snowflake lights from the trees to create their own winter wonderland. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"> <span style="color: blue;">The Doniphan West Chapter just completed their annual Fruit and Meat sales. Once the orders were collected and paid for the fruit and meat was shipped to the high school. Members had to collect their own fruit and mix the boxes to fit the orders they have for their customers. The meat sticks needed sorting and collecting as well as all other meat products. Each member was in charge of delivering their orders to the customers. Another successful fundraiser completed. The money raised is used to help pay for competitions and events for the rest of the year. </span></span>Doniphan West FFA Chapterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11707272188361100341noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2176440432045601989.post-75289448700006233642011-11-22T14:22:00.001-06:002011-11-29T13:04:11.136-06:00Barnwarming<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

John Burke lost his life in the Bartlett Grain explosion in Atchison, Kan., on Oct. 29. Prior to the Doniphan West consolidation, John attended Midway Schools. He graduated from Doniphan West in 2006. While he was an FFA member, John received his State FFA Degree and placed 7th at the Kansas FFA Career Development Events in entomology. May God bless John and his family in this difficult time. <br />

Ten members of the Doniphan West FFA Chapter took the 523 mile journey to the 84th National FFA Convention in Indianapolis, Ind., this past week. Members kicked off convention on Wednesday at the Agricultural Career Show where they had a chance to speak with college representatives and industry professionals. Later in the day, they attended the Opening Session in Conseco Fieldhouse to listen to national officers speak, watch chapters and members from across the nation receive awards and hear motivational speaker, Dave Roever talk about his time in Vietnam. After the Opening Session five members attended the National Chapter Award Banquet for chapters receiving the 3-Star ranking in the National Chapter Award program. To wrap-up Wednesday, members went to a haunted house for a some exciting and spooky entertainment. <br />

They then attended the Second General Session where members watched the National FFA Organization recognize Native Americans in agriculture and FFA and watched the Central Region Vice President, Wyatt DeJong give his retiring address. At this session Doniphan West was also recognized as a 3-Star chapter. At the conclusion of the session, our chapter went to eat at Joe's Crab Shack with members from the Seaman FFA Chapter and then went to Lucas Oil Stadium to watch Blake Shelton, with Steel Magnolia and Little Big Town in concert. <br />

On the way back, we stopped at the English Buffalo Ranch where members learned about the animals and had a chance to eat a Buffalo Burger. <br />
<br />
Despite some rainy, cold and windy weather in Indianapolis, the trip was a great success and we can't wait to go back next year!<br />
