Banquet Season in winding down...

Hello Delaware,

I can not believe that banquet season is already over! I have had the opportunity to attend numerous banquets and I am so impressed with Delaware FFA. Every chapter has made me feel welcomed and truly did an amazing job.

Sam Steele and I attended Woodbridge FFA where we enjoyed a great chicken meal and watched many members be recognized for their accomplishments. It was nice to see Jose and other members again. Also, I was so excited because I won my first door prize ever!!

At Sussex Central's banquet I had the opportunity to give my keynote address, which was a lot of fun. The dinner was excellent, especially being served by Garth! It was interesting to see Paige, Tabby, and Casey give there retiring addresses/thank you's. Thank you and congratulations to Mary for being elected the new president.

Last night, Dr. Hutchison and I attended Christiana High School's banquet which was a lot of fun. I was thrilled to bring greetings on behalf of the Delaware Association and enjoyed eating dinner with their principals, school board members, and interim superintendent. Congratulations to Angelica for recieving the DeKalb Scholarship.

Tonight, Mike and I attended the Newark FFA banquet where I got to hear Mike give his keynote and watch 8 people recieve their Greenhand Degrees and 6 people recieve their Chapter Degrees. I really enjoyed talking with Talia, Ana, Dawn, Brandon who recieved the "livesaver" award, and Swanson who recieved the "bag of tricks" award. Also, Congratulations to the newly elected 2009-2010 officers as followed:
President: Anthony Swanson
