The event brings FFA members together to learn, be inspired and celebrate their accomplishments in the organization. FFA members, We face some incredible challenges in feeding our world and keeping agriculture on the cutting-edge, and we are the generation charged with finding solutions. We are FFA. This is our industry and our world. We must choose to “Ignite” positive leadership, growth and career success through FFA to develop ourselves and “exert and influence.” We believe that every FFA member has the potential to create a real difference in their community and across the world. We believe this because we’ve been growing leaders in agriculture for more than 80 years. In fact, this year, at the 86th National FFA Convention & Expo, we celebrate 80 years of the FFA jacket. That’s 80 years of igniting our potential— to lead others, to grow ourselves and to successfully turn our industry into the breadbasket of the world. However, this takes effort and it takes commitment. We must fuel our passions, spark actions and make the choice to “Ignite” our potential. This October, nearly 60,000 FFA members will join together at the National FFA Convention & Expo held in Louisville, Ky., to do just that. We will fuel our passions for agriculture through competing in career development events, participating in the National Band, Chorus and Talent and sharing research through the National FFA Agriscience Fair. We will spark action through convention and expo workshops, participating in the National Days of Service and exploring the National FFA Expo. We will make the choice to “Ignite” our potential as dynamic speakers call us to action and we witness models of excellence in individual and chapter categories recognized on the convention and expo stage. FFA members, get ready to fuel passion, spark action and Ignite FFA at the 86th National FFA Convention and Expo! ~The 2012-13 National FFA Officer Team
