The new year approached so fast and state council was busier then ever. We kicked off our new year by spending a weekend at the Pennsylvania State Farm Show. We had the opportunity to dine at the governs dinner, and participate in the opening ceremonies parade of commodity reps. After participating in those two events it makes you look at the Farm Show in a whole different perspective. As the excitement of the Farm Show came to an end it was time to prepare for the Leadership Conference.
The weekend came so fast as we were all warming up by practicing the hand jive and getting ready for Saturday's hop. This was our time to shine, as we hosted the biggest number of people ever to attend the conference, which was 360 people. We also hosted our special guest from the Tennessee council.The conference was so much fun and it all started off with fifties games and root beer floats, and of course I can't forget about the great skit that the we preformed. It was a great way to kick-off the conference. The next day was another day of fun and excitement. Of course there were the great workshops throughout the day, but this years dinner speaker was truly amazing. The Brain show was highly entertaining, educational, and full of fun dances. Then as the conference came to an end, it was sad to leave, and say goodbye especially to are new friends from Tennessee but thankfully we will all be visiting them in July for their conference. This event was so much fun, stressful at times, but when we look back at those moments we will just laugh. It was a phenomenal experience, and I can't wait for Capital Days!
