Oregon FFA Convention In Person Next Week

Oregon FFA will do something next week that hasn’t been done in over two years. The Blue and Gold will hold an in-person event. And the event, is the state convention in Redmond.

“Not only have we not had a convention in the past two years, we haven’t had in general in person events, and for one of our first back in person events to be the state convention that’s awesome for everyone," said Oregon FFA Sentinel Katie Price. "We’ll be able to come and attend and see everyone from across the state.”

Price added convention allows students to be honored for their successes in state and leadership-based competitions. In addition, students that attend will hear speeches from FFA officers from across the country, including Idaho, Washington, Virginia and Texas just to name a few.

The Oregon FFA convention takes place March 17^th-20^th, and the Deschutes County Fairgrounds in Redmond.
