One of the larger audiences of recent years looked on as Bowie FFA presented its top awards for the years and said thank you to its supporters.
A special guest at Tuesday night’s banquet was Windsor Godfrey, state FFA president, from nearby Bryson.
Chapter awards recognize the work of freshmen up to seniors in a variety of projects.
Senior Kenzie Short received the Dekalb Award which is given to the senior ag science student who has excelled in all phases of the ag. science/FFA program with an emphasis on real-world agriculture and the project program.
