2019 National FFA Convention & Expo

MORE THAN

ATTENDEES
On the evening of Tuesday, October 29th, ten FFA members from Central Lyon got onto a charter bus and rode for eleven hours to Indianapolis. We got tickets to the Old Dominion concert. Everyone had a blast at the concert and really enjoyed the amazing show from Old Dominion. We visited the shopping mall and expo building.  We also attended several different sessions, and got to witness other members receive multiple awards, and see some of the winning talent acts perform. Bob Goff was one of the keynote speakers and he spoke about exiting your comfort zone, meeting new people and learning about their lives. Michelle Poler was another keynote speaker and she spoke about not letting fear be who you are. 

2019 Iowa FFA Leadership Conference

More than 50 members of the Central Lyon FFA attended!
The Iowa FFA Leadership Conference was held on April 14-16, 2019. We had members compete in certain areas such as Greenhand quiz, Creed Speaking, Stars over Iowa, Chapter Website, FFA Talents, Choir, Band, Chapter Display, and many State SAE. The leadership conference gives our chapter the opportunity of meeting members from all over the state, and share ways to promote agriculture. It allows students to see the benefit of hard work and dedication to a Career Development Event or a Supervised Agricultural Experience Project.

2019 District FFA Convention

More than 40 members of the Central Lyon FFA attended!
On February 19th, the Central Lyon FFA Chapter attended the Sub-District competition, and on March 2rd, they attended District Convention. The Convention started with FFA members competing in quizzes, Career Development Events, and also seeing one of our members, Kade Griesse, retiring as Northwest District Vice-President. These two days are an opportunity that allows members to learn and come up with ideas to bring back to our local chapter and watch our members advance to the Iowa FFA Leadership Conference.
