We encourage everyone to participate in the daily Illinois FFA Social Media challenge that will highlight your FFA journey. There will also be a profile picture filter available on February 20, 2021, that you can apply to your Facebook page to show your support and excitement for FFA.
The fun doesn’t stop there! The state officer team is excited to travel and visit communities virtually, they are also thrilled to announce that they will be doing a Facebook Live every day of FFA Week at 11 a.m. to share more about their FFA Experiences and answer any questions you may have.
