Friday March 23rd through Sunday March 25th I had the opportunity to attend the Women’s Farm Bureau Conference. I was astonished when I found out that over 400 women from all across the state of Virginia were in attendance, of all ages! On Saturday I had the opportunity to attend three different types of workshops about Facebook, How Hope CANNOT feed America, and Gen Flexing. Gen Flexing was my absolute favorite and by far one of the most interesting workshops I have ever attended. Gen Flexing or Generation Flexibility was about learning how to best communicate with different generations and realizing how they grew up does affect their methods and means of communication and life. Overall the Women’s Farm Bureau Conference was an awesome experience that I would definitely love to do again. It was a great opportunity to meet new people, learn new things, and to just enjoy yourself!
The following Wednesday March 28 I had the opportunity to go visit the Auburn High School FFA Chapter with Maggie. We did workshops on the characteristics of a good leader and opportunities through the FFA. We had all grades and ages and it was really cool and exciting to hear what all they had to say. So to say the least I had an awesome time with the Auburn FFA Chapter! I am now getting ready for the Appalachian Area GPS Conference at Pulaski County High School tomorrow! It is always an amazing time bringing together a bunch of FFA members from different school so I am very excited to see how tomorrow goes! The past few days has been packed with a lot of different FFA activities and I have really enjoyed it!!!
