🐷🌱💙💛 Member of the Month — May! 💛💙💛

Our Member of the Month catch-up continues! 😂📅 This time, we are traveling back to May to recognize Lindsay Akers!

Lindsay is one of those members who may not always be the loudest person in the room, but you can always count on her to get the job done! She is a strong work presence behind the scenes and is always willing to jump in and help wherever she is needed. 💪

May was a BUSY month for Agri-Power FFA, and Lindsay was right there helping make it all happen! She was a tremendous help with our Pig Show 🐷, our Livestock Judging Contest 🐄🐑🐖, and she also represented our chapter by competing in the State Agronomy CDE! 🌱🏆

Lindsay's willingness to work hard, help others, and dedicate her time to our chapter does not go unnoticed. We are so thankful for members like her who help make everything we do possible!

Thank you, Lindsay, for your strong work ethic, dedication, and willingness to serve our chapter! We are proud to recognize you as our May Member of the Month! 💙💛

Our Member of the Month catch-up continues! 😂📅 We are traveling back to April to recognize Evan Tague!

Evan has a Dairy Goat Entrepreneurship SAE, where he continues to gain valuable hands-on experience and grow his knowledge of the livestock industry. 🐐

Evan served as our 2025–2026 FFA President, providing leadership to our chapter and helping guide Agri-Power FFA throughout the year. As his term came to an end, he was honored as the recipient of the Agri-Power FFA Alumni Lifetime Member Award—a recognition that speaks to the impact he has made on our chapter. 🏆

Even though his time as an FFA officer has come to an end, Evan continues to be a BIG help to our chapter. He is always willing to lend a hand, step up when needed, and help those around him.

Above all, Evan is a great example to others. His leadership, work ethic, and willingness to serve others demonstrate what FFA is all about. 💙💛
