The Herington FFA Chapter is proud to announce that Gage Billinger, a sophomore, has been selected to perform in the National FFA Band at the 2025 National FFA Convention in Indianapolis this fall.
Billinger earned this honor through a competitive audition process, submitting a recorded performance that was reviewed by a panel of judges. As a member of the National FFA Band, he will perform on the national stage multiple times throughout the convention and will arrive three days early for rehearsals with fellow musicians from across the country.
The Herington FFA Chapter extends its appreciation to Corteva Agriscience for sponsoring the National FFA Band.
