State Leadership Conference for Greenhands (SGLC)

I've been to SGLC as a camper and was LEARNING TO DO. I gained a great deal of knowledge about leadership, communication, and who I was.

Now experiencing this camp as a state officer, I was excited to realize that I was DOING TO LEARN this time around while facilitating workshops, working with the officer team, and meeting with a very excited, energetic and extremely talented group of FFA members!!

The LEADERSHOW NETWORK was streaming live all week as we learned exactly what it takes to be a leader, FFA activities and opportunities, and how to put these things into action.

SGLC was a very exciting and rewarding week for me, and I hope many of you who attended can say the same. I saw a change in you as a group as the week progressed. I could feel the level of engagement and energy building everyday. It was awesome to see it all explode out of you at the dance!! Keep it up! Find a way to keep this excitement and passion alive not only through your FFA adventures, but whatever you do!

This is why I do what I do...

Being involved in FFA and other agriculture related organizations gives me a sense of purpose when I am at home working on the farm.
That's what's going down this week. I'm home on my dairy farm working with a purpose. It's for my family, my SAE and my passion for these beautiful bovines that keeps me mooving forward in my agricultural pursuits.
When times seem tough on your farm, really stop and think about why you do what you do.
