On April 19, 2016, Paris FFA was invited to speak at the Kiwanis Club meeting held in the PJC Ballroom. The presentation was an overview of "what's happening" in the Paris Ag/FFA Department. Look back at the Paris FFA Updates and that's pretty much the content of the presentation. Chapter President Tieren Gates and Chapter Advisor Hayden McFadden did an EXCELLENT job of letting the Kiwanis Club members know what Paris FFA is about.
