Last week, six members of the RV FFA joined more than 70,000 FFA members, advisors, and guests from across the country at the 97th National FFA Convention and Expo in Indianapolis. The National FFA Convention is the largest annual youth organization gathering in the nation.
Other members Tate, Cory, Kaylyn, Karlee, Brady, and Miss Gibson traveled together and had a fun-filled week. They attended the Convention and Expo for two days and experienced motivational sessions, workshops, an engaging career and college fair, met hundreds of other members, shopping malls, and downtown Indianapolis. FFA’s main message this year is to “Engage”. Students learned to engage in laughter, empathy, conversation, school, and every aspect of their life! Their week also consisted of many educational tours including Caterpillar Track Type Tractor Assembly Line, Lincoln Tech Campus, Indianapolis Motor Speedway, Churchill Downs, Louisville Slugger, and Harvest Home Dairy. They also had fun cooking meals in a house together, attending a rodeo, going go karting, and axe throwing.
