National FFA Leadership Conference

Every year in October, the National FFA Organizations hosts a leadership conference for FFA members across the nation. This year 7 members were selected to attend the 2016 conference in Indianapolis, Indiana.  While at the conference, FFA members listen to various keynotes speakers, tour agricultural industries, and meet other members across the country.

Jodie Mausser and Trevor Hepker represented the East Buchanan FFA chapter to recieve their award for being named a 2 star chapter in the Supreme National Chapter award.
