On the Third day of our FFA National Convention Trip, the boys visited the National FFA Center in Indianapolis, Picked up our Convention badges, found a few tractors to look over outside the Expo center and even found a Nature park for our Cross Country runner to get his runs in this week to keep in shape for his STATE Cross Country meet on Saturday.

Day Two of our National Convention trip we left St. Louis and traveled to Louisville, KY to visit the Louisville Slugger Factory. The boys learned all about the Forest in Pennsylvania where the tall straights trees are chosen for the bats.

Central FFA had a Wonderful First day of their National Convention trip. We stopped in Joplin, MO for Breakfast @ the Big Biscuit, stopped at Buc-ee's for a rest stop and then made our way to the St. Louis Arch. We explored the Museum below the Arch and learned so much about how, when, and why it was built. All eight of us rode the Tram Cars to the top of the Arch @ 630' above the ground and back down. Finished the First day with a St. Louis style BBQ dinner @ Busch Stadium where the St. Louis Cardinals play. Tomorrow we will head to Louisville, KY and tour the Louisville Slugger Factory, after that we will head to our Airbnb in Indianapolis, IN.
