Next year, FFA dues will be increasing to $25 so get the discounted rate while you can! FFA dues make you eligible for FFA funded activities, free admission to Lyman Hall sponsored CT Safe Boating Classes, scholarships, Career Development Events, award programs and so much more. The following students need to either pay their dues, sell bulbs or come up with a plan to work off their dues: Kyle, Jenn, Marina, Courtney R. , Evelyn, Alyssa, Carter, Ethan, Elly, Hayley, Cathryn, Nick Moran, Nick Motmans, Ian, Steve, Matteo, Fox.

​SAE
Kestrel Nesting Box Kiosk: A recent graduate is looking for help putting the finishing touches on a project he completed for his Eagle Scout project.  He is looking for someone to create a poster to be put up on the kiosk at a kestrel nesting box site, Farnum Field in Wallingford.  "What I would want on it is some basic information about the field, who runs it (the town of Wallingford and the Wallingford Land Trust), some information about the bird, and basic stuff like diet, range, and physical description. If anyone is interested and if you think this could be a good SAE project for someone they or you can email me let me know."  For more information please contact Mark Bernick (2016).
CT DEEP Boating Ambassador: The boating director from the CT DEEP is looking for one student to represent Lyman Hall as a Boating Ambassador.  Essentially your job is to educate the public about boating safety.  At the end of the year you will be recognized for your contributions at the state capitol.  Let me know if you are interested.
