One year ago, I got the opportunity to serve as your Maryland FFA State Vice President. Now, I leave this role with a heart full of gratitude.

To the Maryland FFA Association, thank you for trusting me with the privilege of serving you. Thank you for every handshake, every conversation, every chapter visit, every laugh, and every memory. You welcomed me into your communities, challenged me to grow, and reminded me every day why this organization is so special.

To our members, thank you for being the reason behind every mile traveled and every early morning. Your passion, resilience, and willingness to lead have inspired me more than you’ll ever know. Watching you discover your confidence, find your purpose, and realize your potential has been the greatest honor of my year.

Maryland FFA has given me far more than I could ever give back. It has shaped me into a stronger leader, a better communicator, and, most importantly, a better person. While my blue jacket may look a little different now, the lessons, friendships, and memories I carry with me will last a lifetime.

As one chapter closes, I know the story of Maryland FFA continues to be written by each of you. Keep leading with courage, serving with humility, and believing in the impact you can make.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for allowing me to serve you. It has been the honor of a lifetime!🫶🏼

For the final time, your 2025-2026 Maryland FFA State President, Hailey Pleasants.

Leadership is about serving others with humility, heart, and purpose, and throughout this past year, Hailey embodied each of those qualities as the Maryland FFA State President. She led our association with confidence, compassion, and an unwavering commitment to every member she met.

Hailey’s passion for agricultural education, genuine care for people, and ability to inspire those around her made a lasting impact on our team and our association. Whether she was leading from the stage, connecting one-on-one with members, or representing Maryland across the country, she always served with grace and authenticity.

Thank you, Hailey, for your countless hours of service, your steadfast leadership, and the example you’ve set for future generations of Maryland FFA members. Your influence will continue to be felt long after your jacket is retired, and your legacy will forever be woven into the story of the Maryland FFA Association.

Congratulations on an incredible year!💙💛

Day 3 ✅ Texas State Convention. Little fun fact about me is I’m from Maryland and I never knew Maryland had FFA but I just got to meet the State president for Maryland! Such a cool moment. I sadly broke my Alanui fast but it’s chill. After the general sessions I got to go into the pit and got a cool experience on the floor! It was neon night! Such a great day.
