First Annual FFA
Conservation Field Day
The first annual West Snyder FFA Conservation Field
Day was held by the seventh grade junior high FFA mem
bers with the assistance of six senior high FFA members.
The FFA traveled to Beaver Adams and West Beaver
Elementary Schools for National Arbor Day on April 29 to
conduct this program.
The senior high FFA members who participated were
Elizabeth Hollenbach, who gave the welcome, and Steve
Boop, John Waller, Ben Boonie, Jeremy Hackenbcrg, Jen
ny Zerby and Glendon Carper.
The Junior high members planned different environ
mental activities for each grade. Groups of six junior high
FFA members and one senior high FFA member gave
half-day presentations to each grade level. Chaired by Jen
nifer Balantcz and Beth Fisher, the kindergarten and first
grade activities included planting seeds, making a craft
flower, and a coloring activity. In second grade. Chairman
Kristen Havicc arranged a presentation on the importance
of water, played Water Word Bingo, and read a story on
how to keep the water clean. Jancll Bobb, chairman of the
third grade group, discussed wildlife and showed a video
about the recovery and release of wildlife. They aslo col
ored a poster on Pennsylvania wildlife.
In fourth grade, Laura Looney chaired activities, which
included a video entitled “Those Record Breaking Ani
mals,” and a coloring contest on Pennsylvania Wildlife.
Steven Bemardi, wildlife conservation officer for Snyder
and Union counties, presented a program on rabies for the
fifth graders.
This grade level was chaired by Jennifer Kuhns. They
also completed a poster contest. Under the chairmanship
of Brad Hackenbcrg and Doug Boop, all sixth graders con
structed a bluebird house which was precut by the voca
tional agriculture wildlife class. The bird houses were
given to each sixth grader as they completed the project.
Craig 'Bingman from the Snyder County Conservation
District Office assisted with the judging of several con
tests. The conservation district donated a pack of wild
flower seeds and a magnet for each elementary school
student.
