BW-DACC FFA takes part in Ohio Legislative Leadership Conference

The Big Walnut-DACC FFA Offi­cer team was for­tu­nate enough to attend the first ever Ohio Leg­isla­tive Lead­er­ship Con­fer­ence held at the Ohio State House. This event was hosted by the Ohio FFA Asso­ci­a­tion so that stu­dents can gain an under­stand­ing of the role that they play in sup­port­ing and pro­mot­ing Agri­cul­tural Edu­ca­tion Pro­grams to par­ents and com­mu­nity supporters.

Only 15 FFA chap­ters attended the event in which stu­dents had the oppor­tu­nity to hear from the Farm Bureau and local leg­isla­tive sup­port­ers as well as Gov­er­nor John Kasich who addressed the group of FFA mem­bers and explained to them how vital their role is not only as lead­ers in our soci­ety, but how they rep­re­sent one of Ohio’s great­est com­modi­ties in agriculture.

Mem­bers of the Big Walnut-DACC Offi­cer team include Stephanie Lit­tle, Mag­gie Lacy, Kris­ten Hill, Shane Hanly, Kate­lynn Chea­dle and Kait­lyn Headlee.

This is one of the many edu­ca­tional activ­i­ties in which FFA mem­bers prac­tice the lessons taught in the agri­cul­tural edu­ca­tion classes.
