Our Jr. High Halloween Dodgeball Tournament was a hit! Everyone had a great time, and Team 4 came out on top as this year’s champions. 🏆 🎃
Cobden FFA is in the house!
National FFA Days 1 & 2 are DONE and we are LIVING IT UP! Rodeo? Opening session? Cheering on our Illinois legend, National FFA President Thadius! Learning about female pig reproductive tracts? Just check all that off the list!
And the boys were up singing and smiling at 6:40 a.m. because Cobden brings the energy no matter the hour!
Then A’ric Jackson took the mic and absolutely owned the stage! His passion, his fire, and his message to be UNAPOLOGETICALLY YOU hit every heart in the room. He has us shouting “YAAASSS!” and ready to CLOCK THAT!
Cobden FFA came to learn, lead, and shine bright as our authentic selves.
