Contests to be held during the event include Livestock Specialist, College Bowl, Crops Specialist, Prepared and Impromptu Speaking, Dairy Specialist, and Floriculture Specialist contests (at this time, we will not be hosting a Precision contest due to issues preparing content for the event). Click here for a folder of revised rules for each contest and here for a link to the current test banks. Revised this year, there will be no materials submitted prior to the event. All materials should be printed and submitted during on-site registration. Click here for a tentative agenda for the events. Please note that registration will include a catered lunch, but there will be no supper provided at the event in order to keep registration costs low and allow teams to get home sooner.

 

As a reminder, if you have students wanting to run for 2023-2024 PAS Office, they will need to send me a resume and the attached commitment form by Thursday, February 2, 2023.

New this event, if your chapter has not participated in Illinois PAS contests since fall 2019, your chapter is eligible for a $30 discounted registration rate. Please email jedgar@illinoisffa.org to request a separate registration form with this discounted rate. We look forward to having additional colleges join/rejoin us at this conference!

If your college has an active PAS chapter, please also submit a brief officer contact form here. The Illinois PAS officers would like to collect contact information for local PAS officers to collaborate and plan additional events each semester that would be of interest to your membership.

Best Wishes as you begin your spring semesters!
