California ffa state conference 2025

On April 3rd-6th, eight Golden Valley FFA members attended the 97th Annual California State FFA conference. They had a wonderful time listening to inspirational speakers such as rodeo comedian Dale Brisby, the California State Treasurer Fiona Ma, Superintendent of Public Instruction Tony Thurmond, and Miss USA Alma Cooper. Our students were also inspired by the retiring addresses from our now past state FFA officers and their stories of leadership.


Out of our amazing students, we have Ashlynn Roduner, who served as a State Conference attendee on behalf of our chapter. Here's her experience from up in the stands, “Overall, the state conference was a fantastic experience; listening to the now past state officers stories was very inspiring, and I'm so glad to have had the opportunity to go. The people are so kind and genuine; it's a good experience if you want to meet new friends, learn about the FFA, or overall just bond with your chapter." Ashlynn is one of our seniors, so we are so happy she had a positive experience at her last State Conference as an active FFA member at Golden Valley.

We also had one of our delegates down on the floor get us an inside scoop of what's going on behind the scenes. Here's the delegate rundown courtesy of Gregory Hennagan, “My time at the 97th Annual California FFA State Conference was very fun. Not only was I able to attend, I had the opportunity to be a voting delegate. I got to meet many people thanks to my experience as a delegate. I am honored to have been able to go through this experience, and I can't wait for next year!" We are glad to hear the 97th Annual State FFA Conference had such a lasting impact on our members. Golden Valley definitely can't wait until next year either!

We here at Golden Valley FFA are proud representatives of what California FFA is all about. We are excited to see what the upcoming year has in store for us with our newly installed officer team! Our members are one hundred percent Central Region Proud!
