National Convention Recap!!!
Day 2 of convention was filled with motivational speeches, exploring the expo and shopping center as well as a long day in official dress. The day started off with the Opening Session of the 98th National Convention and Expo, where members heard from A'rik Jackson who spoke on getting out of your "box" or you will miss out on opportunities. Members also heard from the Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins, cheered on the state of Missouri as the state brought home some hardware from the National stage, and heard the retiring address from Eastern Region Vice President Caroline Groth from Kentucky, on draining out the lies and finding the truths and the retiring address of Central Region Vice President Mary Schrieber from Wisconsin, on how belief and belonging equals brotherhood.
Day 3 of convention started out with participating in the National Day of Service, members were able to take part in a community service project through the Living Lands & Water in helping eliminate Burning Bush, an invasive species, in Eagle Creek Park in Indianapolis. After National Day of Service, members had time to head to the Expo and attend the 6th General Session where they heard the retiring address from Western Region Vice President Abigale Jacobsen from California, on breaking down walls even when its "inconvenient" and making those connections.
