CLEMSON, SC….The Manning FFA Chapter was named the Outstanding Student Development Program in South Carolina for 2004 by the SC FFA Association, according to John W. Parris, State Director of Public Affairs with the SC FFA. The award was presented at the recent State FFA Convention held at Clemson University.
Tanisha Thames, an officer of the chapter and Michael Haynes, Agricultural Education Teacher at Manning High School, were presented the Governor’s Citation of Accomplishment for this prestigious achievement by Wesley Harris and Larry Rogers with the state office of the UDSA Farm Service Agency, the sponsor of the National FFA Chapter Awards and Recognition Program.
Charles Springs, Chairman of the SC Rural Rehabilitation Corporation which is a co-sponsor of the awards program in South Carolina, presented Tanisha and Mr. Haynes a check for $1000 to defray their expenses to attend the National FFA Convention in Louisville, Kentucky this fall where they will be competing in the finals for the Outstanding FFA Chapter in the nation.
“This award is a notable laurel to come to the Manning FFA Chapter and one richly deserved”, Parris said.
