On Friday, August 19, the Sleepy Eye FFA Chapter conducted a farm safety carnival for Summerfest at Eagles Park in Sleepy Eye.<\/p>\n

With the carnival, 20 FFA members had the opportunity to mingle with community members, while promoting safety. In order to promote farm safety and agricultural education, the activities were free and included a ring toss, ball toss, bean bag toss, ladder golf, and more.<\/p>\n

FFA members who participated included: \u00a0Daniel Armstrong, Brooke Arneson, Kyle Capacia, Alex Confer, Gunny Coulson, Nora Coulson, Chloe Howe, Adam Johnson, Alex Joramo, Ari Krizmarzick, Izzy Kunkel, Isaac Lendt, Leisha Martinez, Marcus Martinez, Winsten Nienhaus, Jake Price, Noemi Rodriguez, Kaytlyn Romberg, Robert Romberg, and Conor Strong.<\/p>\n

\u00a0Educating youth on safety and agriculture is something the FFA feels is very important. At the events, participants were asked trivia questions regarding tractor, animal, chemical, grain, water, or ATV safety following each activity to enhance the knowledge of agricultural education and farm safety. The events were filled with enjoyment for FFA members as they connected with the community.<\/p>\n

In addition to the farm safety carnival, the FFA members stayed active during Summerfest by participating in the parade with their FFA-themed float on Saturday, August 21, 2022. 18 FFA members decorated and rode the float during the parade.<\/p>\n
