INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. (RFD-TV) — Upwards of 70,000 people from across the country are preparing to travel to Indianapolis this month for the 98th National FFA Convention & Expo. As our Countdown to Countdown continues, anticipation is building for what promises to be one of the most dynamic gatherings in the organization’s history.
Christine White, Chief Program Officer for the National FFA Organization, joined us on Friday’s Market Day Report to share a preview of this year’s event.
In her interview with RFD-TV News, White discussed the vast array of programming and activities planned—from leadership workshops to the highly anticipated keynote sessions—designed to inspire and equip the next generation of agricultural leaders.
