Bayli Anne Hyde of the Burlington FFA Chapter in Oklahoma has hometown spirit deep in her soul. She began volunteering at Burlington City Hall with small tasks like sweeping the fire station or setting up chairs for community fundraisers. When a friend was diagnosed with muscular dystrophy, she put her efforts toward raising money for that cause. Hyde has even worked to interview the son of E.M. Tiffany and put together a documentary on the “Father of the FFA Creed.” She is supported by her parents, Marci and the late Robert Hyde, and her FFA advisor, Travis Bradshaw. This award is sponsored by Carhartt, Inc.
