FFA MEMBERS ATTEND LEADERSHIP CAMP
By: Ezabela Herber
BINGER, OKLAHOMA- The Shattuck FFA chapter was well represented at the 51st annual Oklahoma FFA Alumni Leadership Camp. For the first time in 40 years, the event was hosted at a new location, the Cedar Hills Baptist Youth Camp in Binger, Oklahoma. Despite the change of locations, our members still made the most out of their time spent at camp. More than 1,650 FFA members from over 300 Oklahoma FFA chapters have registered to take part in one of the six 2½-day sessions scheduled from July 2 to July 15, 2023. Those in attendance included Olivia Quisenberry, Ezabela Herber, Sadey Schoenhals, Sydney Melton, Madisen Sanchez-McDonald, Tate Charmasson, Leah Taylor and Bryan Holt.This year's camp, themed "Linked: Communicate to Connect", is designed to engage FFA members in a series of fun and action-packed activities aimed at developing intrapersonal, familial, and clear communication skills. Special presenters at the camp will include kickoff speaker Bill Cordes from Kansas, and keynote speaker Brad Barton from Utah. Shattuck FFA’s Olivia Quisenberry said,” Even though we didn’t get to spend what was for some of us our last year at Camp Tulakogee, we still loved every moment of camp!” The Oklahoma FFA Alumni Association sponsors the leadership camp, with generous financial backing from corporate sponsors such as the Oklahoma Farm Bureau, NextEra Energy, Trusted Choice Insurance Agents, Amazon, Public Service Company of Oklahoma, Cherokee Nation, and P and K Equipment.
The FFA and FFA Alumni are an integral part of the agricultural education division within the Oklahoma CareerTech System. The Oklahoma FFA Alumni Association's primary goal is to create a robust, effective statewide organization to promote, serve, and support agricultural education and the FFA.
