Music on Main in Mt. Pleasant last night was a huge success! The New London Ag/FFA Chapter was present to recieve the generous check from Henry County Farm Bureau, that was given to “New London Ag Foundation”. The New London Ag Foundation is funding half of the cost for the first three years of the program through great partnerships such as Farm Bureau. The $10,000 contribution is the first of a three year contribution commitment that Farm Bureau has pledged to the New London Ag Foundation.

The Foundation and Program thank you dearly! ... See MoreSee Less

These seven officers include Lily Syfert - President, Maison Nelson - Vice-President, Tucker Syfert - Treasurer, Alexa Lair - Secretary, Ava DeHart - Reporter, Noel Strickland - Sentinel, and Carter Adams - Historian. They all participated in a Chapter Officer Leadership Training held at Cedar Rapids Prairie High School for the Southeast Iowa region. They participated in team building activities that provide a growth model structured around the roles and responsibilities of the FFA chapter leadership roles.
