Wisconsin Player with Heart: Blake Jones
Manage episode 507903554 series 2444487
As a Beck's Player with Heart, Blake Jones shows his commitment and passion both on and off the course and rink. Blake currently plays hockey and golf and serves as a Sentinel for his school's FFA chapter. He enjoys these activities because they create a sense of community and support personal growth in their own ways. Through hockey, Blake learned valuable lessons in teamwork, discipline, and resilience, and built a strong work ethic. He was able to learn about leadership, responsibility, and practical skills in FFA, where he also found opportunities to connect with the land, improve his public speaking, and boost his confidence. Golf taught him about focus, patience, and strategic thinking. Blake is involved in several community activities, especially through FFA. They participate in community service projects throughout the year, the biggest being the Adopt a Family project, where they help 8-10 families in the school district have a good Christmas. Agriculture has taught Blake many valuable lessons. He has learned that agriculture is more than farming; it requires a connection to the land and knowledge of how to take care of it. He knows farmers take responsibility, work hard, and find innovative ways to grow food and manage resources. Being involved in the agriculture industry has connected Blake to a community that values sustainability and tradition. In the future, Blake plans to own his own farm and build a successful agricultural business through sustainable farming practices and high-quality show animals. He also wants to learn how to ensure long-term success on the business side of the industry.
