It is summertime, and schools across the country may be out, but for some FFA members, that means it is time for camp.
Not every state has an FFA camp, but for the ones that do, they serve as a beloved place for many members.

Tennessee FFA State Secretary Abigail Whicker spoke with RFD-TV’s Jennifer Vickery Smith about the history of the camp, what campers will experience, and state officers’ roles in the summer fun.
