Corn drive yields more than $6,000

A corn drive conducted annually by the Hills-Beaver Creek High School FFA Chapter took place Oct. 9. FFA members contacted local grain producers for a donation of corn, with members transporting and selling the grain at the New Vision Elevator in Hills. Members also accepted monetary donations and all funds were given to the Hills-based Game Plan 4 Hope organization. The FFA’ers raised just over $6,000, according to first-year FFA adviser Cloey Anderson. “The H-BC FFA Chapter has once again completed another successful corn drive and would like to extend a huge thank you to our community for supporting this ongoing tradition,” she said. “It is through donations like yours that we are able to give back.”
