Congratulations to everyone for a wonderful job on Turkey Challenge! On Friday the FFA Students delivered 15,365 cans/boxes of food to SEAC to be distributed. It is amazing how this district shows up every year to help the community. A special shout out to SIE. Stuco has the official numbers but the amount of food we picked up there was staggering. The three pictures attached are of the students sorting items.The trailer loaded with food, there is also 5 ft in front of the gate you see that is full as well as the nose of the trailer. A third picture is of the over 1,000 boxes of pop tarts.
