[April 30, 2015]  LINCOLN - "Drive Your Tractor to School Day" was Wednesday's theme for Mount Pulaski High School Future Farmers of America students. The program has been celebrating FFA week with a different theme each day.

Monday was "Duck Dynasty/Camo Day" along with the freshman Ag students "Get Your Hands Painted Green Day."

Tuesday the students observed "Hat, Boot and Buckle/Dress Like a Farmer Day."

On Wednesday, in conjunction with driving tractors and lawnmowers to school, the students were encouraged to wear the color of their favorite tractor.

Thursday is "Class Color Day" where each class wears a designated color and there will also be a cookout for the entire school with hamburgers, hot dogs, chips and cookies on the menu.

Meanwhile, on Friday the activities wrap up with "Ag Awareness Day," which features the ever-popular petting zoo. Starting at 8 a.m. and running until 2 p.m. on Friday, the FFA students will host kids from Zion Lutheran School and Mount Pulaski Grade School at the petting zoo. Students are asked to wear their blue and gold on Friday.

Ralph Allen is the advisor of the Mount Pulaski FFA chapter, which proudly has 58 student members.
