It takes 3 books to create one StoryWalk… and since 2022, the Galva FFA StoryWalk has shared 20+ books, 350+ reading activities, and put in over 650 volunteer hours!

2023 & 2024: Illinois Agriculture in the Classroom Book Grant – Added new books to keep the StoryWalk fresh and engaging.
2025: Big Bluestem Wind – Supported new storyboards, additional books, replacement parts, and ongoing upkeep to sustain the project into the future.
📖 Books have been sourced through Thrift Books & Amazon.

Due to a variety of reasons Parker Kaiser was the lone competitor for the Jr. High Cross Country team today at Lake Storey in Galesburg. This course has a very challenging section through the woods! Parker battled with the main pack of runners and had a great race, finishing in 16:19! We look forward to see what she, and her teammates, can do next week as we run twice in the peoria area!
