If I could only find my old FFA jacket from early Tennessee days. It is gone and I don’t know where. I’ll bet my dad used it to wash his car or something after I left home.

OK FFA is so excited to be in Oklahoma City once again! The blue and gold has traveled here for State FFA Convention since 1981.

This year we bring nearly 10,000 FFA members, advisors, sponsors, parents and guests to celebrate the talent and achievements of the state’s more than 24,000 members.

The convention highlights FFA’s development of premier leadership, personal growth and career success in its members.

I saw three young blue coats trotting along Sheridan this morning and had to smile. I wonder if they have any idea how much they really are noticed, and appreciated…

Many of the Bricktown restaurants LOVE them. Just like you mentioned they are typically very polite and have money to spend. Some of the restaurants even do fast paced special menus or buffets, just to help get the masses all something to eat.
What a great group of kids!

Amen, Rob. I once wore the blue & gold. FFA had a wonderful impact on my life. Wish everyone could’ve gotten the experience. Always good to see them in OKC. Great blog!
