On
March 11th, prior to the shut down of all schools in response to
Covid-19, four members of the Olympia FFA participated in a
Horticulture Career Development event competing against several
other schools in the FFA Section 9 area.
Left to right: Noah Reber, Bailey Rogers, Ryleigh Hilt and Carson
Inselmann participated individually, and collectively placed second
overall as a team.
The team would have gone on to State competition in April had it not
been for the unusual circumstances that brought this school year to
an abrupt halt.
