After wrapping up the state convention earlier this week, you will find two Luxemburg-Casco FFA members at a national event later this month. Savannah Bailey and Jakayla Steinhorst are two of the eight Wisconsin-based FFA members participating in the Next Gen Conference in Minneapolis beginning on June 25th. Only 68 high school students were selected to participate in the four-day conference out of the potentially thousands of members that could have applied. The conference will take the attendees around to different food processors so they can learn more about food processing systems. Steinhorst says she feels honored to attend the event with Bailey and to take her agricultural journey down a different path.

Steinhorst and Bailey were busy during the Wisconsin State FFA Convention in Madison. Bailey was in the running for a state officer position while Steinhorst participated in the speaking competition and the choir.
