I also went in 1976 and had the amazing opportunity to ride the elevator with Tanya Tucker. Never realized what a big deal she was then.

Had the opportunity to attend in 1958. Seen one of our chapter members receive his American Farmer Degree. Also toured a steel company and saw them making large steel billets and then rolling steel to small diameter sizes.

Seth Pratt was a really good speaker. they had another concernt but we didnt buy tickets. but that was O.K. because i dont really like the people they had. it was also on of our ag teachers last time to go.

I went twice once in '05 (last year in Louisville) and in '07. The '05 trip was an absolute blast as we drove from Wyoming and did a lot of stuff. '07 was still lots of fun but we made it to the finals in Parli Pro so spent a lot of time doing practice in between rounds.
