Posted
Members from the Warrenton FFA chapter recently attended the Missouri FFA Association’s 2014 Leadership Adventure in Columbia. It was held Thursday, July 3, at the University of Missouri Bradford Research and Extension Center.Attending the conference from the Warrenton chapter were Nick Banze and Sarah Mueller.The focus of the 24th annual conference was in agricultural careers, leadership development and positive role models. Over 200 members and advisers registered for the leadership experience from 34 chapters across Missouri. An additional conference was held in Springfield to accommodate more FFA chapters. Nearly 6,500 Missouri FFA members and advisers have attended the Leadership Adventure since its beginning in 1990.According to Conference Coordinators Marvin and Karen Hoskey, “This conference annually provides an excellent opportunity for Missouri FFA members to interact with other chapters, state and national leaders. The sessions foster development of leadership skills and encourage students to practice teamwork and goal setting as they get motivated for the coming school year.”Leadership training was headed by Andrew McCrea, former state and national officer from Missouri, and Corey Flournoy, former state and national officer from Illinois. They were assisted by Jaelynn Bergmann, national officer candidate from Missouri.Current State FFA officers from Missouri guided small groups during the training sessions, which were designed specifically for high school age FFA members’ personal leadership development and planning for future success. Students wanting to learn the basics of self-discovery and understanding their leadership potential were taken through activities to develop teamwork and people skills. The training focused on helping students create an advanced plan for lasting impact on the world through utilizing personal leadership traits and healthy relationships to make their goals a reality.Submitted by Diane Miederhoff, Warrenton FFA chapter adviser.
