NEBRASKA STATE FFA PRESIDENT MESSAGE
TRUE BLUE NEBRASKA NEWS
Amanda Most Greetings, Nebraska FFA!
Knowing the involvement of Nebraska FFA members, I have no doubt that you all have had busy summers and that time has flown by! That’s how it has felt to me since I was elected into office at State Convention in April. What an amazing whirlwind it has been! I cannot describe how grateful I am to serve as your 2018-2019 Nebraska FFA State President. I’m blessed to have the chance to meet, work and grow with you all throughout the next year and I’m looking forward to seizing each opportunity I have to do so.
My team and I have been working hard since April preparing for our year of service by attending several trainings to develop our roles and learn more about each other’s strengths. Within a short amount of time, our skills and talents were put to use planning the 2018 Chapter Officer Leadership Training (COLT) Conference. At the conclusion of the four COLT sessions, my team and I had connected with around 1,000 Nebraska FFA members! We were blown away by the incredible individuals that we met, and we have nothing but confidence in the leadership of Nebraska FFA chapters for the next year. After meeting with members and advisors during COLT, the state officer team traveled the state during June connecting with generous sponsors and donors of Nebraska FFA. Our eyes were once again opened to the many different avenues within the agriculture industry. We were also filled with gratefulness as we witnessed firsthand the immense amount of support that surrounds our organization.
The first few months serving Nebraska FFA have been nothing short of spectacular, but there’s still much more to do. My team and I will continue to challenge ourselves to grow as leaders in order to better serve, and we are nothing but eager for the months ahead. Best,
Amanda Most
