Last Week, 9 of Golden City's Top FFA members travelled to Indianapolis for the 98th National FFA Convention & Expo! Members started their journey with a stop at Busch Stadium in STL for a behind-the-scenes tour about the operations and history of the stadium! They attended the Opening Session of National FFA Convention, heard an inspiring message and networked with thousands of FFA members from around the country! Next, they attended the Career & College Expo where 100's of colleges and business professionals were there to encourage, recruit, and build connections with the FFA Members! Friday was our tour day, students and advisors travelled to Peoria, IL to tour Caterpillar, seeing from start to finish, the assembly of Bull Dozers! Friday night, we attended the National FFA Rodeo! Fun was had by all! Saturday, they watched the American Degree ceremony then headed back to Golden City, MO. Check out some snapshots from our trip below!
