We couldn’t be prouder of our AFMA Junior Ambassadors who joined us at this year’s
convention. These outstanding young leaders from across Arkansas spent several days
right alongside us — learning, lending a hand, asking great questions, and soaking in
what it truly means to be part of the fair family.
Throughout the week, they participated in leadership sessions, helped with convention
activities, and visited with fair managers and board members from every corner of the
state. They were eager to learn about how fairs operate and the important role each of
you plays in supporting youth, agriculture, and your communities.
Their energy was contagious. They jumped in wherever they were needed, represented
their local fairs beautifully, and reminded all of us why investing in the next generation
matters so much. Simply put — they were amazing.
We were super excited to have them with us this year, and we are already looking
forward to welcoming them back next year.
A big thank-you goes out to our incredible mentors who poured into these students
throughout the convention, and an equally big thank-you to the kiddos themselves for
coming out and doing such a fantastic job. Your time, attitudes, and hard work truly
made a difference.
We hope this program continues to grow in the years ahead, opening even more doors
for youth leadership and keeping the fair tradition strong across Arkansas.
Best,
Hayley-Beth Skelton
