Waitsburg's FFA team took fifth place, competing against 15 teams, in a Metal Art competition at Columbia Basin College last week. FFA Advisor Nicole Abel said this was Waitsburg's first time competing in the event. This year's competiton was done "Junkyard Wars style" with teams grabbing materials from a pile of scrap metal. Waitsburg team members chose an old bike frame and a piece of sheet metal as their construction materials. They had from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m to design and complete their art piece.
