About the Author: Blakely DeMuth
I’m a sophomore at Perkins-Tryon High School in Oklahoma, and I serve as the Chaplain of our FFA chapter. FFA is a huge part of my life. I love showing pigs, giving speeches, livestock judging, and cattle grading! Outside of FFA, I’m a cheerleader and Hope Squad member who enjoys encouraging others. In my free time, I love reading, spending time with friends and family, and playing with my dogs. This is my first year as an FFA in the USA Reporter, and I’m so excited to grow, learn, and share my passion for agriculture!
