Carter Bell has been selected as a National Finalist in
Wildlife Production and Management for raising and selling his quail. This
prestigious recognition acknowledges Carter as one of the top four members
nationwide with the SAE through an application process that started in
February. He had to compete at the Area level. After winning Area and State in
April, his application was polished and sent to Nationals.

an interview with a panel of judges from National FFA, followed by an on-stage
presentation at the National FFA Convention on October 31st at 7 pm EST, where
he will learn if he has been awarded the top honor.
Missouri, in general, had a fantastic year with 13 National
Finalists out of the 50 areas. Congrats to the National Finalists!!
Good Luck, Carter!!! Thank yous go out to John Deere, Ducks
Unlimited, Invenergy, and Wrangler for sponsoring this award area.
