Steven Vekony, member of the Byng FFA Chapter, will lead the more than 24,000 members of the Oklahoma FFA Association for 2013-14. Members elected the 18-year-old to his presidential position during the 87th Oklahoma FFA Convention on May 1. He is the son of Kent and DeeAnn Blevins.
"Considering I have already been blessed this past year with the gift of time, another year is the greatest blessing anyone wearing the jacket could ever ask for," said Vekony, who is an animal science and agricultural education major at Oklahoma State University.
Seven additional FFA members will join Vekony on the 2013-2014 Oklahoma FFA officer team: Tyler Schnaithman, Garber FFA, secretary; Josh Haven, Cheyenne FFA, reporter; Garret Reed, Locust Grove FFA, northeast district vice president; Lawson Thompson, Deer Creek-Lamont FFA, northwest district vice president; Allison Christian, Duncan FFA, central district vice president; Desiree Masterson, Spiro FFA, southeast district vice president; and Bray Haven, Cheyenne FFA, southwest district vice president.
Eighteen-year-olds Bray and Josh Haven of Cheyenne are the first set of twins to serve together as Oklahoma FFA officers.
