Members of the South Central FFA chapter attended the Land Use Envirothon CDE competition on Tuesday, March 12th at Veterans Park in Mt.Vernon. Two teams represented South Central FFA. Both teams consisted of five members and were tested on five different elements of the environment. Soils, Forestry, Wildlife, Aquatics, and a fifth area that changes each year. This year, the fifth topic focused on renewable energy.
