The Fort Worth Stock Show and Rodeo spanned from Jan. 15-Feb. 6, and, despite the winter wonderland Texas was experiencing, the local FFA programs showed up and showed out.

“We bared the storm, and it's so nice to see them put all the hard work and dedication into the barn every single day,” Aubrey ISD ag teacher Blake Anderson said. “A lot of these projects started in the summer or even last spring, and to see their willingness to go and still compete is amazing.”

Anderson witnessed the students’ determined spirit firsthand and described how the weather led to an unexpected change in plans for many of the families.
