NATIONAL RECOGNITIONNational Conventions - Iowa was represented at the original organizational meeting held in November, 1928, at Kansas City, when the first National Constitution was adopted, by Herschel Hintermeister of Muscatine and G.F. Ekstrom. Since that time official delegates and local members, chapter advisors, awards winners and guests have represented the Iowa Association annually at each National Convention.

National Pilgrimage - The Iowa Association was represented at the National Pilgrimage at Washington, D.C., Mt. Vernon and Monticello in 1933 by President Charles Steward, Dana, LaVern Newton and William Meyer of Iowa Falls and H.T. Hall, executive secretary-treasurer. President Steward participated in the dedication ceremonies of a room in Monticello to the purpose and ideals of the FFA.

National Radio Program - The Woodbine chapter presented a program as one feature of the National FFA Radio Program over the N.B.C. Network in October, 1933. The Scenic City chapter of Iowa Falls presented a similar program in November, 1936.

National Officers - LaVern Newton of Iowa Falls was elected second vice president of the Future Farmers of America representing the North Central Region and served during 1932-33.

Julius Black of Waukee was elected to a national office of the FFA at the 1935 National Convention and served as secretary for one year.

IOWA FFA BANDAn Iowa FFA Band of 75 pieces was first organized in 1934 and made its initial appearance at the annual state FFA conference that year. Since that time, the FFA band has been one of the features of each conference program.

The 1938 band was composed of 100 members from 33 FFA chapters in the state. All were active members in good standing with their local chapters and with few exceptions were in high school and enrolled in vocational agriculture classes.

The band appeared in uniform at the 10th State Convention program held at Iowa State College, May 12-13, 1938; the 1938 Iowa Centennial Fair, August 24 to September 2; and the 11th National FFA Convention at Kansas City, October 17, 1938. Mr. A.R. Edgar, director of the Iowa State College Bands, and his assistant Mr. Paul Bachman, directed the band at these three appearances.

The band was financed by the state and national organizations, the local chapters and individual members. The state association provided music, official uniform caps, lodging and transportation.
