The 94th Texas State FFA Convention was held in Fort Worth Texas July 11-15. Of the more than 14,000 registered members and guests Lindsay FFA had 8 students and 2 teachers attend. Pictured L-R Ms. Pavliska, Stephen Fuhrmann, Kade Branson, Blake Keith, Emma Baker, Lainie Reiter, Caylee Cheaney, Kade Cannon, Layton Morrow and Mr. Keith.

Layton and Blake kicked off the week representing Lindsay FFA competing in the Texas FFA rodeo on Monday morning and again Monday night for the second round. On Tuesday the workshops and general sessions began where throughout the week Lindsay students attended five different workshops focused on either developing leadership skills, networking or career preparation. The students also had an opportunity to view more than thirty Agriscience research posters containing some very interesting studies this year. There were five general sessions in which state officers presented their retiring address and presentation of student awards.

Stephen Fuhrmann received a $20,000 scholarship from Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo. Jase Keith earned his Lone Star State FFA degree, the highest award possible within the state association, but was unable to attend the award ceremony due to a conflict with math and science camp at Texas Tech. As for social activities the FFA provided a kick off concert Tuesday night with Mike Ryan followed by a student talent contest on Thursday night.  

Thank you to the LISD administration and school board for their support of Lindsay FFA and the staff to provide our students with meaningful and impressionable experiences such as this convention. 

The 95th annual FFA convention will be held in July of 2023 in Dallas, Texas.
