It is with a tremendous amount of discussion and deliberation that the Illinois FFA Board has made the following decisions for the 92nd Annual Illinois FFA Convention due to the health risks of COVID -19 and the impact the Stay at Home Order has on our ability to have a full staff to complete the task of coordinating all of the components of our State FFA Convention.
As we work on converting all of these aspects of the Illinois FFA Convention virtually, please be diligent in checking your listserv messages and emails.We will be sharing a great deal more information in the next few weeks.
Many may ask why we have spread it out over the course of multiple weeks this summer. Please know that the decision to keep the Business Session, Stars Over Illinois, and the Election of the 2020-2021 State Officer team in the traditional week of convention is something the board felt was imperative to the timeliness of getting officers elected and celebrating our Stars. Many teachers, students, officers, alumni, and friends indicated they would be tuned in that week, and the board felt we would have our greatest numbers then for celebrating our Stars and conducting elections. The remaining events of convention being pushed back into July allows our officers and staff the time to get these other areas converted to a virtual format.
If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to ask.
