The Iowa FFA Foundation’s annual golf tournament is a special activity of the Iowa FFA Foundation Sponsoring Committee. All proceed are used by the Iowa FFA Foundation for operation, sponsorship requests and scholarship programs.
“Playing in the FFA Foundation’s golf tournament is a great way to show support for FFA, contribute to youth leadership enhancement in agriculture and have fun all at the same time,” said Iowa FFA President Lindsay Calvert. “We invite everyone to come out and tee up for FFA on June 12.”
