Who chooses your advisory board?
- Nominations and elections are conducted by those that currently serve on the board. The agricultural education teachers need to understand their curriculum and community resource individuals to a level where they are able to make informed recommendations.

The "Connie Baggett story"
- Again, I am hopeful that someone will take the lead to invite him to a special organizational meeting/function so that he can share his story and we can capture it electronically to share in the future!
How can we sign up now/How much?
- First, find out if you home chapter has an Alumni Affiliate. If not, or if you did not come through a high school program, then I would encourage you to contact Krista Pontius at kpontius@greenwoodsd.org to find out how to become a state/national member!
How do you keep the alumni members active/interested, once you start an affiliate chapter?
- Give them jobs to do. Find out what interests them the most and then share where/how you need help in that area. You will be amazed at how willing people are to help, if they know how to help.

Does every advisor/chapter have an advisory board?
- They should, and if they want to be state approved, they need one.
How can you turn around a "bad" advisory board?
- This begins by selecting people that are willing to work with the teacher and the administration to build the program. The teacher needs to help guide the nominations so that appropriate individuals are on the board.
