The New York State FFA Convention took place this year in Syracuse on May 2, 3 and 4. Students not only competed in various divisions but they also participated in community services, toured agriculture industries (i.e. farms, businesses) and attended workshops.
In addition, there were several networking opportunities and social activities, the highlight of which was a concert given by country musician Chris Lane.
