Medford FFA Takes on National FFA Convention!
What an incredible week of learning, exploring, and making memories! Nine Medford FFA members had the opportunity to attend the National FFA Convention & Expo in Indianapolis, Indiana!
Our trip started in Kansas with a tour of Cross Country Genetics, where members learned about embryo transfer in cattle and the exciting advancements in virtual fencing technology.🐮🐮
From there, we headed to Kentucky, where we toured the Louisville Slugger Museum and learned about their sustainable logging practices used to produce the iconic Louisville Slugger baseball bats! ⚾
Our next stop was Churchill Downs, where members got a behind-the-scenes look at the horse racing industry and learned about the history and traditions of the Kentucky Derby! 🐎🐎
We then made our way to Indianapolis for the National FFA Convention! Members attended multiple convention sessions, gained valuable leadership knowledge, and experienced everything National FFA has to offer.
We couldn’t have asked for a better way to end our trip than watching Kaylee Junghanns walk across the stage to receive her American FFA Degree! 💙💛 This is the highest degree awarded by the National FFA Organization, and we are extremely proud of her accomplishment!
It was a great week filled with new experiences, valuable lessons, and memories these members will carry with them for years to come!
The future of agriculture is bright! 🌾
