Mr. Johnston and the Arnett FFA members hosted a community ice cream social on Wednesday, August 21st. There were games to play for the kids and the older students and adults. Community members enjoyed walking around the ag shop and seeing all the projects that students are working on. And of course, there was lots of delicious homemade ice cream made by parents/grandparents. FFA members are currently selling Blue & Gold and DJ’s if you’d like to order any sausage, bacon, or other products from a local student.
