There’s a lot to be excited about for this year’s North Dakota FFA state convention. FFA Foundation Executive Director Laiken Demorrett says the biggest item this year is the new location. “For the first time in about 50 years, we will be outside of Bentson Bunker in a new venue, the Sanford Health Athletics Complex in Fargo, to accommodate our growing membership,” said Laiken. “That brings a ton of new opportunities for our members to experience an enhanced level of excitement at the convention.” The Bright Futures Career Expo and Celebration banquet will be held on Tuesday afternoon. “We’re expecting about 50 vendors, some games and music, and it should be a great time for our members to network. The other thing that we’re managing or that we’re planning for the convention this year is our celebration banquet, taking place on June 4. That’s something that we do to honor our state and American Degree recipients, as well as our state Star finalists.”
