We are less than a week away from the next National FFA Convention & Expo, and continuing our Countdown to Convention presented by Culver’s.
Today, we highlight FFA alum Kat Walker, who is using the life skills she learned through her FFA experience in her role as a whitewater rafting guide. She is another shining example of how FFA members are shaping the future of agriculture.
