FFA Christmas Meeting

‘Tis the Season to be Jolly!

By: Ellynne Vance

In order to spread some hope and Christmas cheer this holiday season the FFA hosted their Christmas party this past Thursday night, the 9th of Dec.
The 60 members present kicked off the night by collecting cans door-to-door to help benefit the FFA Tons of Fun Canned Food Drive. After collecting the cans the FFA members returned to the High School to weigh and sort them. The members collected a total of about 670 lbs.
The members then proceeded on to a night filled with fun, food, and friends! The FFA officer team updated the members on what is currently going on in their chapter and encouraged members to get involved. To wrap up the evening everyone assembled in the high school auditorium to watch a festive movie.
In honor and thanks to the armed forces that are serving overseas during the holiday, the Eureka FFA in conjunction with the Illinois FFA are making and shipping care packages to the troops. The FFA collected more than enough items to fill the 19 boxes they had, plus a few extra!
The night was packed full with lots of laughter and Christmas cheer. From collecting cans to eating cookies the Eureka FFA members enjoyed lots of fun and fellowship this Christmas season.
