Hospitality & Tourism is a new class in the FCS department taught by Mrs. Schmitt. They have two chapters dealing with restaurants and food service. The students made a delicious cultural lab of orange chicken, waffles with caramel sauce (from Sweden) and California roll with rice, avocados, and imitation crab meat. They worked together as a team and everything turned out well.

Housing & Interior Design I Class did a group project and built housing styles out of the building materials we had on hand. Just like they did in the early days. Mrs. Schmitt's students were busy with building and making sure they had particular attributes for each house. Some of the housing styles were: A-Frame, Log Cabin, Modern, and a Craftsman Style. They did a great job!

This year the New Hampton FFA solds 376 mums with a lot of great help from Ace Schueth Hardware Stores in New Hampton and Charles City. Doug Schueth is presenting checks to the chapter treasurer Kandice Eggerichs for the mums that were sold in their stores. All of the proceeds from the sale were returned to the chapter for future projects. Thank you to Doug and Jackie, and all of the employees at Ace. Also a big thank you to all of the people that purchased mums. We also grew 60 mums for the Lansing FFA that were sold to them at wholesale.
