Sevastopol FFA Returns from National Convention
Posted on 11/05/2017

On Wednesday October 26th FFA members and Mr. Carlson traveled to Indianapolis, Indiana for the National FFA convention. While there they attended the agriculture college fair. At the college fair most of the colleges in the United States that focus on agriculture were there to talk and give prizes as well as promote their college. In addition to the college fair there was a career fair that all of the main agriculture businesses in the country took part in. They all had booths of information and games with prizes. While in town, the group went on a museum tour in downtown Indianapolis. The museum illustrated the history of the city which was interesting for the FFA members to see. One of the main attractions in Indiana is the Indianapolis Speedway. Indiana holds many races every year but the main one is the Indianapolis 500. They toured the track and saw all the old racing cars. Highlights of the trip included listening to Laila Ali, daughter of Muhammad Ali, give a motivational speech, and getting to interact with the other 65,000 FFA members present at the convention.
