FFA Members Participate in Public Speaking

Sydney Lawson, Kody Purvis, Chad Harter, Victoria Nader and Olivia McDade represented Greenville FFA in the District 5, Sub-District Public Speaking Contest on February 10, 2015 at Brookville High School.

Sydney Lawson, a freshman, participated in the Creed speaking contest and Kody Purvis and Chad Harter participated in the Advanced Creed speaking contest. The FFA creed consists of a student memorizing the five lines of the FFA Creed and presenting it to a panel of judges. This contest is designed to develop leadership and the ability to appear before a group. Participants then answer a series of questions over the FFA Creed. Members participating are evaluated on their presentation, memorization and response to questions. The difference between the Creed and Advanced Creed is that the Creed contest consists of only freshman students while the Advanced Creed consists of members who are in their first year of Agricultural Education and are either a sophomore or junior.
 
Victoria Nader participated in the Advanced Prepared speaking contest. Participants develop a six to eight minute speech on any agricultural related topic which is to be memorized. After their presentation participants are then asked a series of questions about their topic and speech. This contest is designed to better a student’s speaking and leadership skills. Participating members are evaluated on their presentation, memorization, and response to the questions.
 
Olivia McDade represented Greenville in the Extemporaneous speaking contest. This area consists of participants being given an agricultural related topic in which they have half an hour to research. Then members give a four to six minute speech. The contest is designed to stimulate the interest of FFA members in agriculture and leadership by giving them the opportunity to speak before an audience.
 
Sydney received a gold rating on her presentation of the Creed. Chad and Kody both received a gold rating while Chad also placed second qualifying him for the District FFA contest. Victoria Nader placed first in the Advanced Prepared and will be moving on to the District contest as well. Olivia McDade received a gold rating in the area of Extemporaneous. Congratulations to each of the participants on a job well done!
