representatives from O’Reilly Auto Parts, Grasshopper Dealers, and other

different workshops hosted by officers.
Congratulations to Olivia Y, Seth P, Bridget K, Danika H, and Jackson G

September/October Fun Night
Every month
we will be hosting a monthly fun night.
This month 14 members enjoyed playing Just Dance, Apples to Apples, or
Dominos at Holton FFA’s Game Night.
October the 15th was
celebrated with movies and snacks.
Members had the choice of watching The Visit if they were feeling brave,
or kicking back in Mr. Bartel’s room and watching Hotel Transylvania. Regardless of the movie watched, everyone had
a great time!
