MILWAUKEE — Registrations for the Wisconsin FFA Alumni closed Jan. 20. The annual meeting will be held at the Milwaukee Marriott West in Waukesha from Jan. 31 to Feb. 1 hosted by Sections 4, 5 and 10. This location is offering the opportunity for a Friday night event at Milwaukee Vincent High School showcasing their agriculture education program, touring facilities, and enjoying the school’s fish fry.

Other new events are an Elite Table Auction which will be sold on Friday night to reserve a table for 10 at Saturday’s banquet. A dessert dash for the Saturday night banquet is also a new fundraiser. An online auction will go live on Jan. 17 and close on Jan. 31. 

It is 40th anniversary of the FFA Alumni Conventions. Education seminars, sectional meetings, live and silent auctions, speakers and a lot of networking will fill Friday night and Saturday during the various sessions. The auctions are held both evenings with all proceeds going to many statewide FFA programs. The annual meeting is the largest fundraiser the Wisconsin FFA Alumni Association holds each year.
