Introducing the Alfred & Joan Chapin FFA Chapter Hall
Alfred Chapin was employed at New Berlin Central School for 25 years as an agriculture teacher and FFA Advisor. He was passionate about teaching student’s leadership skills and taking trips to Camp Oswegatchie in Croghan, NY. He mentored student teachers during his career. He took students to the National FFA Conventions, summer and winter sessions at Camp Oswegatchie, and attended retired agriculture teachers’ events at the camp.
One of his passions was to raise money for the new dining and lecture hall at the camp. He was so proud of the Chapin Hall which was made possible by his donations and that of New York State FFA Chapters. The building was completed earlier in 2020. In June, he toured the Chapin Hall and was overjoyed at the results.
Alfred Chapin passed away on July 19, 2020. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the New York FFA Leadership Training Foundation, Attention: Todd Lighthall, 9340 Long Pond Road, Croghan, NY 13327.
