This summer the chapter sent Jonathan Linke, Brady Tiede and Corrie Snedeker to West River Leadership Retreat in Custer. The annual Fourth of July barbeque was held which was very successful.
Starting the school year, the chapter had a few members participate in FFA livestock shows at the State Fair. Three members participated in the Land Judging contest in Wessington Springs and one member in the Range Judging Contest. Jonathan Linke placed 14th and received a silver medal in Range Judging. He also earned a FFA Jacket through the SD FFA Foundation Blue Jackets Bright Futures FFA Jacket Program.
The chapter sent two members, Tate Ziebart and Corrie Snedeker, on the state bus to the National FFA convention in Indianapolis, Ind.

The last regular meeting was the Woonsocket FFA Chapter Banquet in May.
Members were recognized for their success over the 2011-2012 school year. The seventh graders received their Discovery Degrees and the freshmen received Greenhand Degrees. Aaron Linke received Star Discovery, Jonathan Linke received Star Greenhand and Corrie Snedeker received Star Chapter. Awards were given for CDEs that chapter members had participated in throughout the year.
The chapter adopted a Constitution. It was moved that the chapter would pay each member’s state and national dues.
