Area IX Officers guided the Miller officer team as they worked on how to plan an efficient officer meeting, learned how to use social media as a good and positive thing for our FFA chapter, and talked about what qualities a good leader should have.  The officers also enjoyed a contest between 5 teams over the FFA Opening Ceremonies and some quality team bonding at Steak’n Shake and the mall.

The Miller Officers are now ready for the great upcoming year of 2016-2017.
