	Description:		SHOW NOTES *INTRODUCING RAYMIE SHOOP!* Interviewing people with passion is what this show is all about. Today’s guest definitely has that passion both for horses and agriculture in general. Raymie Shoop has been been working with horses and learning about breeding, selling, showing and everything else since she was four years old. Today she is just getting ready to start her sophomore year at Purdue University where she is studying agricultural communications as well as agricultural business. She wants to work in public relations going forward, and one of the messages she wants to spread is just how pivotal horses are to the world of agriculture. Raymie is involved and advocating wherever she can. She served both as a chapter secretary and reporter for her FFA chapter. She also was the national youth treasurer for the Pinto Horse Association of America. And, she is currently the Indiana Horse Council Queen. She has also been a silver proficiency winner at the national level and a district star farmer through her breeding and selling of horses.

In 2014, 141 FFA students received these grants. With your donations, more students can get this head start – *pay it forward.* REASONS TO DONATE TO FFA: Only 2% of Americans grow and raise most of the food and livestock consumed by the other 98% as well as the rest of the world. FFA is providing the needed education, training and resources to Americans that will carry that torch forward and insure that America continues to have inexpensive, quality food. Rural Communities will rely on entrepreneurship in the future for population growth and job creation. The FFA is a major catalyst to that entrepreneurial growth. Farmers, ranchers and those working in agriculture give the rest of America incredible amounts of freedom because the search for food is as simple as going to the grocery store: “The future of American agriculture depends on the involvement and investment in America’s youth, In order to prepare for the population of tomorrow, we need to encourage America’s youth today, and show that careers in agriculture are profitable, rewarding, and vital.”.
