In Case You Missed It- Radio Oklahoma Ag Network Farm Director Ron Hays welcomed Holly Blakey of the Oklahoma FFA Foundation to In the Field on Saturday morning during the KWTV News9 Saturday morning news program.
Blakey is currently the assistant executive director of the Oklahoma FFA Foundation - starting at the beginning of this year. The appointment was made official by the foundation board of directors this past fall. Following Kendall Brashears' retirement as the executive director in June 2017, Blakey will assume the executive director's role.
Blakey is a FFA Alum- and served as an Oklahoma state officer in 1990-91 as she represented the Morrison FFA Chapter.
Blakey tells Hays that she is excited about the tremendous support that FFA has from both the corporate community as well as from individual donors. The Foundation supports the Oklahoma FFA with scholarships, cash awards and support for key leadership development programs- including major support for the annual state FFA Convention held each spring in downtown Oklahoma City.
