The South Region Rally has been postponed due to factors associated with Hurricane Irma. We plan to rally the South Region FFA members together at the GMA with the same schedule for the day's events on September 20th. We have been looking forward to the rally as I know many of your FFA members have as well. This is only a delay in the hopefully fun and exciting day that is planned for the members of the South Region FFA. Please contact the South Region Ag Ed office with questions.
