Peetz FFA member Eelan Green tends a traveling flock donated by the Sears Roebuck Foundation for two years, paying upkeep and replacing losses while keeping lambs and any profit. The flock will be shown at the Colorado State Fair, with a ram replacement planned to prevent interbreeding, and accurate records kept. The effort aims to apply FFA training and benefits 15 DAYS-2,127 MILES as a nod to Charles Read of Davenport Iowa who bicycled to Palo Alto to visit his grandmother, arriving on his 15th birthday after a long journey.
