Husker Harvest Days
Launch the media gallery 1 playerOn September 11, thirty-one FFA members attended Husker Harvest Days. In order to attend, they were asked to bring in at least three cans of food. The chapter is split into five separate groups, with each group being challenged to bring in the most canned items. The winning group consisted of Kelli Bergen, Olivia Prentice, Roy Mason, Ben Winter, Ben Driewer, Shelby Hurlbut, and Spencer Prentice. Jose Romo was the leading individual, by bringing in 26 canned items. Winners of the local contest received a candy bar of their choice. This food was then donated to the Heartland United Way. As well as receiving food, Monsanto donated $1 to the Heartland United Way for every pound of food collected. Overall, Heartland FFA collected 117 pounds of food for the cause.
