State FFA officers Windsor Godfrey and Bryce Fisher challenged Thrall FFA members to step out of their comfort zones to reach their goals when they visited on Nov. 3. Students played games like passing an orange down a line using only their necks and popping balloons using their bodies.
“[The games] forced you to talk to a new person that you might not have talked to before,” Thrall FFA Secretary Bobby Clark, senior, said. “I would like to be a state officer, do what Bryce and Windsor did, but I have stage fright real bad.”
Freshman Kallie Noren said the presentation was fun, but up-close activities were uncomfortable.
“If you step out [of your comfort zone], you can grow as a person,” she said.
Chesney Schwartz, Thrall Agriculture teacher, said the state officers did a good job of interacting with students.
“Since they were so close in age, they could really relate to the students on a personal level,” she said.
