2010 Natioanl FFA Convention - Thursday

Well today was a busy day to say the least!! it started out bright and early as all of the Career Development Event competitors headed to their event rooms to give it their bests! Dakota and Alexis were the first to present at about 9:30am. Sarah Dobson, Jenny Alter, and Erin Klaus competed in the Marketing Plan CDE with their marketing plan for the Remington IGA Meat Counter. It included the following commercial in the plan.








Lastly, a little after lunch, Cassie Klaus and Heather Lehe presented their agriscience fair project. The Marketing Plan team recieved a brinse rating for their presentation and the agriscience fair competitors will find out tomorrow how they did.



Today was also the day that the "day trippers" made their way down to the convention. There were 28 FFA members who came down for the day to visit the career show. adding them to the "week trip" numbers, Tri-County FFA has 44 FFA members attending convention this year!!! In our rough estimates, over 90% of our entire FFA chapter was at convention today!!! From freshman to seniors, all of them had a good time visiting the vendors and exhibitors at the career show.



After the "day trip" members left to head back to Tri-County, all of the "week trip" members headed to the National Chapter Award Session to see Zed Bickett and Caleb Furrer walk across stage to recieve the FFA Chapter's National Chapter Award.



After the session, everyone headed back to the hotel to change before we headed up to Carmel to Laser Flash to play some laser tag with our friends in the Columbus FFA Chapter. We played 2 separate games of laser tag and played all of the fun arcades in the lobby. Oh, by the way, COMPLETE DOMINATION BY THE RED TEAM!!! But everyone had a lot of fun relaxing and getting to know our Southern Indiana Friends! Then we headed back to the hotel for some well deserved and needed sleep!!



Stay tuned, because there are A LOT more fun and exciting things happening this year at the 83rd National FFA COnvention!!!
