Sophomores: “Adventure” Awaits!
Get ready for “Adventure U”: a jam-packed
weekend where sophomore FFA members
explore leadership, the power of choices and
find themselves in this one of a kind personal
growth conference! You will spend the weekend
learning about your strengths and how to stay
sharp as a leader: physically, intellectually,
spiritually and socially. Enjoy time in a nice
hotel, experience a crazy dance and meet FFA
members from across your region here at MFE:
“Adventure U”!
Juniors and Seniors: Envision a new FFA!
What could your FFA chapter accomplish if it
had the tools and strategies to be truly powerful?
Get ready for ALA: “A New Vision”. ALA will
help students and chapter officers hone in on
the purpose and vision of the National FFA
Organization as students gain clarity on the
fifteen areas of the program of activities in
student, chapter and community development.
During this conference chapter members will
learn the steps to developing action plans
for a community development agricultural
promotion project and showcase their idea to
other chapters at ALA. Members will leave with
dozens of new ideas to enhance their chapter
and lead FFA towards “A New Vision”!
