The AFC FFA finished out the last two days of the National FFA Convention with two early morning sessions: one where they saw the retiring address from Eastern Region Vice President, Miriam Hoffman, and the other where they saw American Degree recipients. They also toured Fair Oaks, where they went on both the Pig and Dairy Adventure. They saw the birthing barn, the robotic milkers, and so many baby pigs! They got to practice ultrasound skills and even got their own picture for the fridge! #AFCFFA
The pumpkin contest brought out a lot of talent this year!
Day 2 of National FFA Convention: FFA Members explored the FFA Expo and Shopping Mall, watched the 4 Parliamentary Procedure finalist teams and had a nice dinner at a steak and seafood restaurant. #AFCFFA
