East Union has 10 Student FFA members attending the National FFA Convention in Indianapolis November 1 through November 4, 2023: Colton McKnight, Kade Weis, Jacob Driskill, Brock Jones, Clayton Toppin, Audrey Young, Jackilyn Campbell-Mills, Molly Gennaro, Gwen Nixon and Mary Brammer.
It should be an educational and fun adventure.
At this year's convention Ashley Toppin will be joined by her family as they will be traveling down to Indy to watch Ashley walk across the stage to receive her American Degree. Our State FFA Vice-President, Elizabeth Hadley from East Union, will be there as a voting Delegate from Iowa. In addition, East Union graduate Kanyon Huntington is Iowa's National Officer Candidate. He has been interviewing for the opportunity to represent the nearly one million FFA members of the organization as a national officer. Recently we received word that he has made it past the first round and that he is in the final 21 individuals trying for officer positions!!! The picture is of Kanyon and his mother, Kammie, with his letter that he has advanced to the next round of interviews that will continue prior to convention!!!
Congratulations and good luck to our East Union FFA members, past and present!!
