If you were listening to our live broadcast from the Cass County Fair in Atlantic Sunday evening, you would have heard breaking news about the FFA Food Stand. Gary Miller, CAM FFA Advisor told KJAN’s Jim Field during the FFA News and Judging Results portion of our broadcast, that fundraising efforts to replace the aging FFA Food Stand received a big boost, thanks to a surprise donation.

Miller announced Darrin and Melanie Petty, with the Frederickon Foundation, presented FFA officials with a check for $5,000 toward the fund needed to build a new FFA Foodstand. Miller said the Cass County FFA is extremely grateful to receive the funds from the Petty’s, and others who have pledged a contribution to replace the building sometime over the next couple of years.

The Trevor Frederickson Memorial Fund was started to give back to the community Trevor loved by offering scholarships to graduating Atlantic High School students and support other things that meant a lot to Trevor.
