May 28-30th saw the Holdrege FFA Chapter Officer team attending COLT Conference at the Leadership Center in Aurora. The theme for COLT was The Premiere... Colt enabled each officer to spend time learning about their specific officer position and developing ideas that can be used by the chapter for the upcoming year. Current Nebraska State FFA Officers conducted COLT and led most all of the workshops, skits and sessions.
Also attending was Current Southern Region National FFA Vice President, Coty Back of Kentucky who was the speaker at the banquet on Tuesday night and led a workshop for members on Wednesday morning.

The officer team spent time reviewing and developing ideas for the upcoming school year to involve all chapter members in the activities of the chapter. The Holdrege FFA Officer team placed third in their division in opening ceremonies competition. Thanks to all of the officers for devoting the time at COLT for the betterment of the entire FFA Chapter.
Holdrege FFA Offcers attending were: Paige Abrahamson; President, Matt Kreutzer; Vice President, Marisa Wolfe; Secretary, Kate Johnson; Reporter, Blake Rademaker; Paliamentarian, and Clayton Parsons; Sentinel. New Holdrege FFA Advisor Jeff Moore was also in attendance along with past advisor Jon Simonsen.
