State+Convention


 * What is the difference between state and national convention you might ask? Well its pretty obvious. State convention is for each individual state to hold their own convention and national covnention is when every state and FFA chapter can come together and learn leadership skills. The Kansas State Convention of 2011 was held on the campus of Kansas State University. The Buhler FFA chapter officers along with Dusty Wolf, who performed in the State FFA choir, went up for a few days to get the experience of a life time. While there, we went and listened to sessions and participated in leadership skill building activities. One fun activity we played was a balloon activity, where you and a partner, which had to be someone you had never met before, had to pop 5 or so balloons as fast as you could. But here's the catch you had to pop them using only your backs. It was a fun and challenging activity that forced you to be creative and work as a team with your partner. Besides all the fun activities we also toured the campus, visited the student union and stopped by the book shop. And we can not forget those you recieved awards at the state level, Dalton Black and Zach Langford, just to name a few. State Convention is a great learning experience and if you ever get the chance to go take it. It will be worth it! **
