The OVCTC FFA participated in Toys for Toys this past Christmas season sponsored by the United States Marine Corps. In addition, Bane Welker in Georgetown sponsored a local competition for participating FFA chapters to gather the most toys. From their efforts, the members gathered 1162 toys! The chapter also earned a donation of $1000 from Bane Welker in Georgetown, Ohio. With the $1000, the students chose to donate $500 to local CTC students devastated with home fires and loss, and the other $500 to the Shop With A Cop Program! The OVCTC FFA would like to thank the following sponsors and participants for helping make our event a huge success!
