1. Purpose: FFA Educational Booths are designed to showcase the benefits of Agriculture Education and FFA membership. These displays can be used in various settings, including FFA Week Events, local fairs, or community gatherings. The focus is on presenting engaging, professional booths that reflect FFA’s values and inspire interest in Agricultural Education and FFA.
2. Size and Structure: Booths must be tabletop displays using a 6’ table (provided by chapter) that is 28” to 32” in height and width. Display boards should measure 4’x8’ and be constructed of ½” or 5/8” material. Boards should have 2’ wings and a 4’ center back panel for easy setup. Back of Display Board: Painted in dark blue or black to maintain a clean professional look.
3. Table Covering: Chapters must provide their own table cover and skirting to cover the entire table down to the floor.
4. Electrical access: Outlets will be available for booths needing power.
5. Booths should focus on FFA’s three POA divisions:
   1. Growing Leaders – Highlight leadership and career development activities. Include visuals or interactive elements that show how FFA builds future leaders in agriculture.
   2. Building Communities – Showcase community involvement and service. Examples might include outreach projects, volunteer activities, or partnerships with local organizations.
   3. Strengthening Agriculture – Emphasize agriculture education, industry connections, and sustainability efforts. Demonstrations, visuals, or interactive elements should illustrate FFA’s impact on the agriculture industry. Each booth should clearly display the local chapter name and highlight all three divisions.
6. Design Standards
7. Brand Alignment: Follow FFA Brand Guidelines for colors, fonts, and logos to ensure consistency.
8. Booths should highlight activities and impacts relevant to the three POA divisions: Growing Leaders, Building Communities, Strengthening Agriculture.

    1. Mechanical Division: Booths that incorporate powered displays, such as moving parts, fans, flashing/rotating/dimming lights, or electronic devices.
    2. Non-Mechanical Division: Includes booths with no powered displays. Flashing/rotating/dimming lights are not permitted in this category. Stationary lights are permitted. Each chapter may enter in one division only.
