What major decision was made by FFA in 1999?

In 1999, the Future Farmers of America (FFA) made the significant decision to relocate the National FFA Convention. This was a pivotal moment in the organization's history as it marked the move of the convention from its long-time home in Kansas City, Missouri, to Louisville, Kentucky. This change was rooted in the desire to accommodate the growing number of members and the need for larger facilities to host the event. The relocation to Louisville provided improved access and resources for attendees and contributed to the convention's continued growth in participation and activities. This decision was a key step in modernizing and expanding the reach of the organization to better serve its members.
