FFA Workshop

Dear FFA Advisors:

The College of the Ozarks extends an invitation for your FFA Chapter to attend our annual FFA Workshop on Saturday, March 2, 2024.

Pre-registration is required. Register Online

We will have four CDE contests scored through JudgingCard.com. These CDE’s are Dairy Cattle, Entomology, Floriculture, and Poultry.  Students in these contests are responsible for bringing their own scantrons that are compatible with JudgingCard. 

Information packets will be available from 7:45 to 8:15 a.m. in the Youngman Agriculture Building.  We ask that only advisors come to the information desk for the packets. Also, please remember that tobacco products are not permitted on campus.

We will be having speaking events again this year. There is limited space in these events and students will be admitted on a first-come-first-serve basis.

**Speaking Workshop Directions      

1. Only 1 student per speaking area per school 
2. Students cannot participate in another C of O workshop event      
3. Bring manuscripts to contest      
4. Official dress is recommended

We appreciate your chapter’s attendance at the College of the Ozarks FFA Workshop. There will be academic advisors and current students available during the FFA Workshop to discuss the agriculture program. The agriculture department offers majors in the areas of Agriculture Business, Animal Science, Horticulture, Agriculture Education, Agronomy, Agriculture Development, Animal Science with an emphasis in Pre-Vet, and Conservation and Wildlife Management. If you have any questions please call the Agriculture Department Office, 417-690-3360. We look forward to seeing you at the 2023 College of the Ozarks Annual FFA Workshop. If weather dictates the cancellation of the workshop, you will be notified by 1:00 pm Friday, March 1, 2024.

Sincerely,
