Brennen Thooft was nominated as a Beck’s Player with Heart for his commitment and passion in and out of band. He feels it is important to be active in high school activities and loves being a part of a group that all have similar goals and interests and work together as a team. Additionally, activities encourage him to step out of his comfort zone and try something new. As a part of the pep band, he is encouraged to attend almost every sport in high school to serve as a part of the student section. Brennen is involved in marching band as a trumpet section leader, concert band, choir, jazz band, pep band, honors band, BEATS as a captain, knowledge bowl, and Business Professionals of America (BPA), where he has competed at regional, state, and national level in spreadsheets application. Outside of school, Brennen plays the piano and finds enjoyment in playing not only during his free time but also for numerous events such as recitals, duet festivals, and Gold Cup competitions. He is also very active with his church community by participating in Holy Helpers, helping with summer faith programs, volunteering at fundraising events, and working at his church's food booth at the local county fair. Agriculture has made a significant impact on Brennen’s life. His family lives on the same farm that his dad grew up on. Agriculture and sports feature multiple similarities including that they both encourage hard work, demand long hours, and require dedication. Living in an agricultural environment has shaped him as an individual. Brennen plans on majoring in either marketing or finance. He would also like to minor in music because of his passion for it.
