THE HAXTUN YOUNG Farmers and Future Farmers of America recently built and installed two wooden Centennial signs on the east and west ends of Town. The Young Farmers provided the funds to purchase materials and the F.F.A. boys assembled the signs. George Michael and the Haxtun town crew helped install the sign by digging the post holes. This project is a community service project by the local F.F.A. members, according to Advisor Loren Whitmore. F.F.A. members shown above (l-r) are: Nathan Peterson, Roger Fetzer, Sean Fryrear and Jay Goddard.
