The other day an article popped up in my newsfeed about a young man who had won an FFA academic award upon graduation from high school. As I read through the article, I saw that the same student had received an award from the Sons Of The American Revolution. This piqued my interest because I am a member of the Sons Of The American Revolution. I am thrilled to today bring this young man onto the show. Victor Snook is definitely worth a SAR award as well as many other accolades. In our interview, we uncovered many ways in which this young man is currently contributing to his community and will continue to do so in the future. Victor is not afraid to be busy! He plays football, played baseball, participates in the marching band, is in the school's jazz band, works outside of school, and obviously is involved in the FFA. What really stood out to me in this interview with Victor is service. For Victor's job, he works for a farm service business. When I hear the term "farm service" I think about mechanics and technicians that repair equipment in the field or service equipment on people's property. However, for Victor's job he helps people out on their farms in any way they need. He fixes fences, does concrete work, and even repairs sheds if need be. Of course, a service job is consistent with everything else I heard from this young man. He has a deep love for music. He has four brothers, and three of them play the saxophone right along with him. That's right, there are four brothers playing saxophone together, two on alto and two on tenor. During the interview, Victor mentioned playing for their church as well as entertaining people in senior living facilities and bringing them the joy of music. Victor has his eyes set on service as a career. He mentioned in our questionnaire that he was going to be studying law enforcement in college. In the interview, he talked about serving his community as a conservation officer. Either way, it is service that he knows and service that he is going to provide in his career. You are going to enjoy getting to know this young man! |
