Nine students involved in the Kewaunee Future Farmers of America (FFA) program received scholarships to further their education in college.  The Kewaunee FFA Alumni presented the scholarships last Saturday at the 70th annual Awards Banquet held at the Ag Heritage Center.  Randy Charles, the FFA teacher from Kewaunee High School, says the opportunity to promote agriculture with the young leaders in the community is important.  He says a special dedication was held during the banquet as well. 

Over $3500 was awarded in scholarships by the Kewaunee FFA Alumni this year.  The annual Tractor and Truck Pull is held every June to raise money for the scholarships.  This year’s 17th annual event takes place on June 21.  You can find a list of FFA scholarship recipients below.
