During the month of April, the Radio Oklahoma Ag Network and Oklahoma Farm Report is spotlighting the twenty Area Stars of Oklahoma FFA that are among the highest achievers in the organization.
The stars come from the five areas in four categories- Star in Ag Placement, Star in Agriscience, Star in Agribusiness and Star in Production Agriculture.
This week, we spotlight the five area stars in Ag Placement for 2021.
One Star Finalist featured in the coming days from each of the categories, will be named the State Star Award Winner during the 95th Oklahoma State FFA Convention coming up April 27, and 28th in Oklahoma City.
This week, our coverage of the 2021 Oklahoma FFA Star Award Finalists continues with Ag Placement competitor Sayge Vickrey of the Adair FFA chapter representing the Northeast Area.
Vickrey's project is working on the family-run ranch where she does everything from baling hay to working cattle.
I plan on returning to the family ranch someday, she said.
Time management has been one of they key things she has learned from the project as she also is an avid softball player and has many other FFA activities.
Showing steers at the county fair and at Tulsa as well as showing horses and participating in the many FFA events have been some of her FFA highlights, she said.
FFA has taught me to get out of my comfort zone, she said.
Future plans call for her to study physical therapy and eventually return to the family ranch.
