ABOUT

Future Builders of America hosted its first Leadership Camp in 2004 at the FFA facility in Haines City, Florida. Just seven students attended the first event but it was such a success that five of the original seven students returned the following year, and they brought friends. Through the dedication and hard work of the camp committee, countless volunteers, donors and FHBA’s own inspirational staff, the Leadership Camp has grown since its inception in both quantity of students and quality of programs. In 2016, the event was renamed to the "Leadership Summit".

It's a wrap! The 2019 Leadership Summit was a HUGE Success!

FBA welcomed over 60 student to the March 7-10, 2019 Leadership Summit at the FFA Leadership Training Center in Haines City, FL. Thank you so much to all of the sponsors and volunteers who made this year's Summit such a success!
