THS Floral Design Class - Several Timpson High School FFA members in Ty Cauthen's floral design class prepared homecoming mums for students in the Timpson Elementary. These students were either making their own personal mums, or their families were purchasing their own. The students did not want the ones created in the Floral Design Class to just be graded and discarded.. they wanted them to find a good home! They prepared their mums for students in the Elementary that were unable to purchase Homecoming Mums and who needed just a little help with the Bear Spirit!! Mr. Cauthen said," So Proud to see these young people step up to show that this is a community of people, not just a town!'' They are living out the FFA creed that states: " I can exert and influence in my home and community which will stand solid for my part in that inspiring task." GO BEARS!
