Almost quadrupling their numbers from last year, 20 West Delaware FFA members competed at districts in Waukon on March 9.
Overall, three groups earned silver, one earned bronze, and one placed seventh overall. Senior Katherine Comely received second place individually.
“Our results did not go the way we wanted them to, but we learned a lot from watching other high-performing teams compete in similar contests,” FFA advisor Rachel Findling said. “This year was a learning opportunity to see what was on the next level of competition. We are excited to jump back in next year.”
