What an incredible week with over 68,000 FFA members & guests from all around the US! While there was certainly plenty of time for fun, members kept busy attending workshops, networking with major colleges and businesses, & celebrating member accomplishments. We are especially proud of Mr. Chase McClure for being awarded his American FFA Degree - an honor bestowed on less than 1% of FFA members. Congratulations, Chase, on setting an outstanding example & standard of excellence! We are so proud of you!!
