The 97th Annual State FFA Convention of the Missouri FFA Association is truly a special event that will be full of changes this year. Columbia, Missouri welcomes us to town for this special event where Missouri FFA members will be recognized and rewarded for their hard work and achievements throughout the past year. The Convention theme this year is “Dance With Opportunity…”. For 97 years, agricultural education students have danced with opportunity through our organization in classrooms across the state to develop and expand their knowledge in the areas of applied science, technical and employability skills while learning about our nation’s #1 industry: agriculture. Missouri FFA members have danced with opportunity by embracing their passion with Supervised Agricultural Experience Programs in areas such as animal agriculture, crop production, mechanics and agriscience. Over the years, FFA has adjusted to reflect our ever-changing society and has helped its members dance with opportunity to be leaders and innovators within our industry. We hope that as you represent your school and community, you wear your official dress with pride. We hope that you are able to “Dance With Opportunity…” toward your future as you thirst for knowledge and sharpen the skills FFA has helped you develop, and you are empowered to influence those around you about the vastness of the agriculture industry.
