Winners of the National FFA Creed Speaking Career Development Event (CDE) were announced Friday during the seventh session of the 88th National FFA Convention & Expo in Louisville, Ky. Mr. Greg Beard of California served as superintendent of the event.
The top four individuals received cash awards to recognize their success in the event. The cash awards and the Creed speaking event is sponsored by Red Brand as a special project of the National FFA Foundation and the National FFA Organization.
The National FFA Creed Speaking CDE is designed to recognize outstanding FFA members for their ability to present the National FFA Creed in a competitive setting. Members deliver the Creed from memory and respond to three questions. The event gives FFA members the opportunity to develop their ability to communicate in a powerful, organized and professional manner.
The event, held at the Hyatt Hotel in Louisville, Ky., is one of many educational activities at the National FFA Convention & Expo in which FFA members practice the lessons taught in agricultural education classes.
