On Monday, November 24th, FFA members from Buckingham Senior & Buckingham Middle Chapters traveled to the Olde Dominion Agricultural Complex in Chatham to participate in the Virginia Agriculture Leaders Conference. Members participated in a workshop led by Ms. Tess Seibel, a former National FFA Vice President, that focused on developing leadership, public speaking, and advocacy skills. Members are prepared to communicate effectively as needed. Moreover, this opportunity prepared our students to participate in FFA Day at the Capitol, which was held on January 23rd in Richmond, Virginia. At this event, members had the opportunity to speak with their elected officials about the importance of supporting FFA, Agricultural Education, and the entire Agricultural Industry.
