We held a speech contest where participants researched an agriculture related topic. This event allows students to develop public speaking skills which are important for future success. They also learn the various aspect of agriculture and how it continuously evolves as technology changes. Youth mentoring is important to the future of agriculture. Manatee County takes youth to Tallahassee to educate and experience the process of involvement and to build leadership skills. Manatee County Farm Bureau encourages members to be civic minded. Members had the opportunity to meet with local, state, and national elected officials to discuss policies that directly impact farmers and ranchers. Educating elected officials on how policies impact local agriculture help to collaboratively work towards helping the betterment of those engage in agriculture. We participated in Farm City Week, a national event whose purpose is to raise awareness of the importance of agriculture and where our food comes from. Events like this allow us to communicate with consumers and the urban population. Participants had the opportunity tO get a better understanding of farming operations and how food gets to tables from the farm. 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 3 1 1 1 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 X 13 13 1 0 0 0 1 1 0 1 1 0 0 1 0 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 FL X Alane Vertucci 9417466161 PO Box 21001 Bradenton FL 342031001 X Jerry Dakin Director 1 X 0 0 0 Ralph Garrison Director 1 X Alan Jones Director 1 X Bruce Shackelford Director 1 X James A Strickland Director 1 X Hugh L Taylor Director 1 X Daniel West Director 1 X Gary Reeder President 8 X James Parks VP 1.5 X Robert Zeliff Treasurer 1.5 X Benjamin King Secretary 1.5 X Casey Horne Director 1 X Vick Keen Director 1 X 0 0 0 Membership Dues 813910 133923 133923 Women's/YFR Committee 813910 3515 3515 Membership Reimb 813910 16487 16487 Annual Meeting 813910 8920 8920 162845 22153 22153 803 803 803 803 308964 308964 308964 308964 23255 16341 6914 6914 1648 1558 90 90 Service Fees 561499 158080 158080 Adjuster/Payroll Reimb 561499 9221 9221 Sales Tax 561499 55 55 167356 669125 162845 167446 338834 123940 9256 400 11304 36153 12262 131 3403 485 FFBF Membership Dues 47335 Expenses Related to Sale 43945 Contributions/Awards 23626 Women's Exp 7736 3384 323360 X 66094 47496 81888 886771 746 166 18050 10390 450415 7660 3000 3000 602143 945093 5242 2427 5242 2427 X 596901 942666 596901 942666 602143 945093 345765 X 0 0 0 1 1 0 11958 6690 5268 2865 2009 856 3227 1691 1536 7660 Crackershoot 23255 23255 427 963 14951 23255 23255 427 963 14951 16341 6914 Part 6, Line 2 Hugh Taylor and Callon Keen have business relationship.
