A group of students gathered at the James Kjerstad Event Center in preparation of the annual state FFA Convention. It begins April 11th, and to the relief of nearly 1,600 students across the state, it will be held in person. Although, for the first time in its history it will be held in Rapid City, as opposed to Brookings, South Dakota. “The excitement of being involved, and seeing that sea of blue when the session starts Sunday night, and you see everybody across and walking out,” said state FFA secretary Hunter Eide. “Wow, oh my gosh, there are so many people who are like me, that are passionate about same things as me and want to spark a change.”

Pierre, SD, USA / DRGNews Feb 24, 2021 3:29 PM For the first time in nearly 100 years the South Dakota State FFA Association annual convention will not be held in Brookings. The April 11-13, 2021, event will be held in Rapid City at the Central States Fairgrounds, Kjerstad Events Center and Western Dakota Technical College. FFA executive secretary Dani Herring says COVID-19 caused the 2020 convention to take place virtually and is also behind the move to Rapid City. She says with restrictions on social gatherings and outside visitors still in place on the South Dakota State University campus, the Association Board of Directors voted to move the convention last month (Jan. 22). Additionally, if case numbers spiked, Herring says there was a possibility the event would have to be canceled last-minute.
