WASHINGTON, D.C. (RFD News) — Every summer, FFA members from across the country travel to the nation’s capital to take part in the Washington Leadership Conference.
Addie Ferguson with the National FFA Organization joined Monday’s FFA Today to discuss this year’s event.
During her conversation with RFD News, Ferguson explained what the Washington Leadership Conference offers members and what makes the experience unique for those who attend.
She also discussed the importance of leadership development in the nation’s capital as the country approaches its 250th anniversary of independence.
In addition, Ferguson highlighted the conference’s Living to Serve program and how members take those lessons back to their home communities.
Success requires more than talent — on this week’s FFA Today, agriculture students show us the hard work, dedication, and teamwork required to gain important skills outside of the classroom through the National FFA Organization.
