Last weekend the Pekin FFA officer team had their annual officer retreat. While on the retreat, the team planned out chapter activities, completed teambuilding activities, set personal/chapter goals, and made tie-blankets for the cancer center. Very productive and fun weekend!

The PCHS GAPP exchange students had a good flight back home from Germany on Friday. A big Danke! to all of the PCHS students who participated in the program and to their families for supporting this fantastic program. A big Danke! also goes to the PCHS administration and school board, Miss Kahl, and Jay, our bus driver, for helping to make this exchange a success. Travel changes lives and broadens horizons. A lot of new and lasting friendships have fostered through this program since 1988.



The PCHS GAPP students and their exchange partners spent their last full day in Germany in the beautiful town of Tübingen. The weather was perfect





The PCHS GAPP students and their exchange partners took a short hike the Platten Forest, near Backnang today. That was followed up by a cookout in the school garden.
