Twin Valley Accepts Greenhands
The Twin Valley FFA Chapter
held its Greenhand ceremony last
week in the vo-ag classroom.
Nevin Mast, president, began the
meeting with the official opening
ceremonies.
All Greenhands had been
required to wear dress clothes
and a tie to school the previous
Friday. They also had to wear a
large green hand pinned to their
shirt and obtain the signature of
the Chapter officers on it - by
correctly answering questions on
the FFA. The Greenhands were
also required to recite the FFA
creed, as required by the
National FFA Constitution.
