Can-Do Challenge
Members of the Winchester FFA joined together to collect canned goods and other non-perishable items to create a farm-themed structure for the Can-Do put on by Luke Bryan and Bayer!
We always try to show up for our community and our school in BIG ways so we knew we wanted to go BIG with this challenge. We design a tractor made of cans hauling a hay wagon made of cereal to a barn made of brownie and cake boxes after a day of hard work. We recognize the hard work of the farmers in our community and across the country who don’t get days off, and work at all hours of the day and night .
The students had a great time working together as a team and developing a sense of community pride
