Rabies is a fatal but preventable disease. The rabies virus is carried in the saliva of infected warm-blooded mammals and is usually transmitted to people and other animals through a bite. Post-exposure prophylaxis, a series of injections administered after...

  • FFA Thanks You For the Support

    May 22, 2024

    FFA THANKS YOU FOR THE SUPPORT: When we first rechartered our chapter, we knew there would be many hills to climb without knowing anything. Our officer team was going in completely blind, from not knowing how to run a meeting to running our very first Whitehall FFA chapter banquet in 30 years. This team did an amazing job.
