Making the Cut on the EHS Ag Mechanics Team

Last Thursday, April 19th, Seth Schumacher, Jacob Leman, Grant Peters, Sarah Kupferschmid, and Logan Dietrich headed over to ICC to compete in this year’s FFA Ag Mechanics competition. This year’s competition involved a section for each of the following: Electricity, Carpentry, Welding, Surveying, and small engines. Jacob placed 1st in small engines, Sarah placed 1st in carpentry, Seth placed first in Electricity, Logan placed second in welding and the team got first overall . Along with the Ag Mech. Competition there was also a Horticulture contest. Our team consisted of Kyle Zimmerman, Eli Cottrell, and Harrison Frank. Out of 32 schools the team got first place at the competition.


Mechanics and horticulture take up a large portion of the Agriculture industry. The FFA promotes mechanics by teaching it in classes and through CDE’s. We also have a horticulture class that helps kids learn about landscape, types of flower, how to arrange flowers, and much more. Both teams did a great job at their competition. The Ag Mechanics team will move on to the state competition on Friday, April 27th at the University of Illinois in Champaign-Urbana.
