We had the BEST time at National FFA Convention!

Between exploring the expo, meeting other FFA members at the Alabama FFA Social, and singing along at the Ty Myers and Avery Anna concert, day three was one to remember!

Day four brought more learning at Lucas Oil Stadium and a visit to the National FFA Center. We wrapped up our trip learning about arena maintenance and land management, trying paintball, and watching some exciting bull riding and saddle bronc at the Three Hills Rodeo!

We are so thankful for the opportunity to take these members on this trip. Getting to learn new things, meet new people, and make memories together is what it’s all about! 💙💛

We made it to Indianapolis this past Sunday! So far, we’ve had a great time touring the Sprayer Assembly Plant, learning about bees, and making our own honey jars at Hunters Honey Farm. We then decided to end day one with some fun team bonding at Topgolf! Day two, we got to learn about dairy cows and the everyday milking process at Fair Oaks Farms. To end off day two, we decided to spend the rest of our day with a steakhouse dinner! We had such a great time and can’t wait for another at National Convention tomorrow! 💙💛
