The section 17 FFA Land Use Career Development Event was held  September 20 at Allerton Park near Monticello.

Eight Arthur-Lovington/Atwood-Hammond FFA members participated in the CDE including Veronica Chambers, Adam Day, Katie Gingerich, Makenna Green, Adam Hingson, Taylor Powell, Griffin Rose, and Koby Stutzman.

The members were split up into groups with other section 17 FFA members and were taken to four different soil pits where they judged the soil and calculated slope.

The ALAH FFA team placed third out of nine teams. Adam Day placed as the fourth highest individual in the section.

“It was a good and fun competition,” said FFA member Veronica Chambers.
