My name is Raelyn Bussey and I am a senior at Windthorst High School. I got involved into FFA through talent shows and became treasurer for my Senior year. I have obtained many awards through the District talent show placing third twice, second once and first once. I am involved in ag mechanic projects and have gone and competed in bigger shows for three years. I serve as my school's local FCCLA president. I have obtained many awards through FCCLA competing in speaking events and critical thinking exams. I have been a varsity cheerleader for two years. I have competed in One act play for three years, where I have been cast as the lead two years in a row. I will be attending MSU to obtain my Dental Hygiene degree. This past summer I obtained an internship at my local dentist office and can’t wait to get started. FFA expanded my speaking skills. I would like to extend my greatest gratitude to Travis Vaughn for taking a chance on the scared freshman and helping her grow. Peace out Windy.

Howdy y’all! My name is Isabelle Parkey and I currently serve as your 2022-2023 Archer 4-H President. I show steers and brangus heifers and I also compete in livestock judging & public speaking. I currently serve as a Texas Youth Livestock and Agriculture Ambassador for 4-H and I am the Texas Junior Brangus Breeders Association secretary, as well as a board member for the International Junior Brangus Breed Association! I enjoy serving this club and I truly believe that I can help “make the best better”

Hey y’all! I am Kensley Vieth and I am the reporter of the Windthorst FFA Chapter as well as Windthorst 4-H Vice President! I participate in Dairy Judging, Ag Mechanics, and Archery. I am very active in my community with service projects, 4-H, serving at church, and making friends along the way. I show a dairy heifer and 2 goats. I am attending Tarleton State University (GO TEXANS!) I am majoring in Agriculture Communications. I have had so much fun making friends and memories. One piece of advice I have for the younger ones, is to ENJOY every moment whether or not it’s in the ring or in the classroom.

With continued drought and changing cattle markets, this year’s theme of the annual Capital Farm Credit Hemphill County Texas A&M AgriLife Beef Conference is more relevant than ever, said Andy Holloway, Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service agent for Hemphill County.
