Senior member Caleb Brandon successfully ran for a district office and will serve as the Southwest District Treasurer for the 2025–2026 year. His dedication to leadership and service continues a strong tradition of excellence in Brazoswood FFA.

Also taking the stage for a meaningful moment was Katherine Odom, who officially retired her FFA jacket as the 2024–2025 Southwest District Reporter. Katherine gave her final remarks and made her last walk across the stage, closing out a standout FFA career.

A huge thank you to Rockin' D Ranch for sponsoring dinner for our hard-working members — your support means so much to our chapter!

The celebration didn’t stop there — every single Brazoswood FFA speaker advanced to Area 3 SDEs (Speaking Development Events) held at Travis High School on May 5 and collectively earned the Sweepstakes Banner, recognizing the chapter's overall success.
