Experience State

First rate from the first state! What a great way to really kick off visiting chapters, conducting workshops, and hanging out with members! The first week of January our team traveled to the great state of Delaware-the first state to sign the Constitution. Delaware provided some of the best experiences imaginable-from rural chapters surrounded by cornfields, to those in the inner city working with students who had little outside knowledge of agriculture. Throughout the week we traveled the state-in many cases all of it in one day. We had a chance to meet with the Governor, learn more about Delaware's number one industry (poultry), eat GREAT seafood, and most importantly, hang out with some FIRST RATE FFA members! Thank you to Delaware FFA Chapters, State Staff- Dr. H and Mr. Cole, State Officers-Justin, Sara and Amanda, as well as all of the District and Chapter officers who made our week so amazing!
