Enjoying our burgers
The Rockford FFA hosted their annual Back to School BBQ. The Floyd County Cattleman grilled hamburgers and hot dogs. The members brought an assortment of sides and desserts. They played cornhole, football, and got to be back with their friends from the summer. They also held the first meeting of the school year. Overall the BBQ was successful!
