As president of FFA I will do everything I can to allow us to get our voices out there and be recognized further out in the community. As president I’ll make sure we raise new and higher standards to be better. So please, elect me, Vail Amos, as the new FFA President. Thank you.

The FFA is like my second family the people In the FFA helped me through some rough times in my life but also helped me with my shyness. I have made a lot of friends and learned a lot of things I never would’ve been able to learn if I wasn’t in the FFA, how to weld, put up a fence, or take care of farm animals. Being in the FFA has helped me figure out what I want to do and what I want to be when I grow up.
