What is GHLC?
Greenhand Leadership Conferences introduce first year, first semester 8th and 9th grade students entering a high school ag credit classroom for the first time to the benefits and opportunities in agricultural education, including Supervised Agricultural Experiences and the FFA Organization. We want those students to be excited, be engaged and be prepared to begin to grow and develop as a student leader and servant in the FFA. Chapters will grow from students who come to this conference. Students who have an experience in personal growth are more ready to take on positions of influence within the chapter. Students who attend will also gain a level of confidence and competence that can positively influence peers and encourage a new level of excitement. Finally, students who understand and practice skills found in the conference are able to be contributing members of the chapter, school and community.
The above form is an INTENT to apply for GHLC. IF your chapter name is not on the above list, your students will be moved to the bottom because we do have a limit of the number of Greenhands that can be accepted. This form closes Monday, August 17. This IS NOT the entry/application form. That will be on Judging Card, will open August 24 and close on August 26.
