The Wisconsin FFA Alumni & Supporters will host its 44th Annual Wisconsin FFA Alumni & Supporters State Convention Feb. 2-3 at the KI Convention Center in Green Bay.
The theme of the convention is “Creating Connections in 2024” and will focus on the four major roles of FFA Alumni membership: Advocate, Donor, Mentor and Volunteer.
“The Wisconsin FFA Alumni & Supporters Convention is an opportunity for members to share insights,
gather resources, cultivate friendships, and come together to support a great cause, and I am confident this convention will be a beacon of inspiration for all who attend,” says Cheryl Steinbach, Wisconsin FFA
Alumni & Supporters Executive Director. “The convention serves as a testament to the strength and unity
of the Wisconsin FFA community, and I greatly look forward to the experiences and connections that will
unfold during this extraordinary event.”
