Cherokee FFA member Jose Castro boarded a charter bus Sunday in Edmond for the Washington Leadership Conference, hosted by the National FFA. He is one of 56 Oklahoma FFA members making the journey this week to Washington D.C.
On June 6, 2026 the Cherokee FFA hosted the second annual bass tournament. Creed Patterson, Kort Roberts and Colton Fisher served as this year’s committee. Although the number of entered teams was minimal, there were still some fish caught and weighed in for prizes. A new division this year was the “Bubba Fish” contest. For an extra $10 entry fee, anglers could weigh in a non-bass fish. The biggest “Bubba Fish” won the pot.
Committee Chair Creed Patterson presented cash awards to the 2026 winners, which included:
1st place stringer of five (9.25 pounds) Michael Utterback, Everett Utterback and Donnie Parker
2nd place stringer of five (5.11 pounds) Hayden Hansel, Austin Hensley and Cooper Littlefield (not pictured)
Biggest Bass (2.47 pounds) Everett Utterback
Biggest Bubba Fish (catfish, 5.49 pounds) Hayden Hansel
The Cherokee FFA will continue to host the fishing tournament in 2027. If interested, please contact Mrs. Snider and/or watch for details to be posted
