Schweigert selected as Olympia FFA Member of the Month

 

[January 12, 2018]  Olympia High School FFA has selected freshmen FFA member, Lane Schweigert, as the member of the month for December. Lane is the son of Jeff and Jenny Schweigert of Hopedale.

Lane was selected for his outstanding participation in a wide variety of FFA activities during the fall semester.

He spent a lot of time grilling pork chops for home football games this fall. Lane participated in the FFA Creed speaking competition at the local level as well as represented our chapter at the Section 9 FFA Agronomy Career Development Event (CDE). He has attended nearly every FFA meeting to date.

Lane is off to a great start in his FFA career. He has also excelled in the agriculture classroom. Lane’s supervised agricultural experience (SAE) project involves him working with his sheep flock of ten ewes. He is interested in study agriculture in college. Lane’s favorite FFA activity so far has been the Agronomy CDE. “I like to compete and demonstrate what I have learned in the classroom,” stated Schweigert. A special thanks to Mark Dietrich of Dietrich Builders for sponsoring the member of the month award!
