Not a shadow of a doubt that South Dakota FFA is generating leaders eclipsing limitations. Caroline Hansen, Leadership Program Manager for the association, highlights that a first step is to “give our young people permission to lead.” Kate Meyer, the current FFA State Secretary, reminds us that the “backing and encouragement” of ag teachers propels FFA members forward. While the best ag teachers may not give a hoot about accolades, FFA rewards their motivational wisdom with a Golden Owl Big Check.
