The Outstanding Young Woman contest will be held virtually leading up to the State Convention in December. Contestants will be judged on application and interview, Farm Bureau/YF&R activities, presentation and community involvement. Each contestant will receive a certificate and a $200 cash award from Tennessee Farm Bureau. The top five district winners will receive a $500 cash award from Tennessee Farm Bureau. The state winner will receive a trip to the AFBF FUSION CONFERENCE and trips to all Tennessee YF&R Conferences. In addition, thanks to the generous sponsorship of Farm Bureau Health Plans and Farm Bureau Insurance of Tennessee, the state winner will receive a $5,000 cash award, with each organization contributing $2,500. The state winner will also serve as Ex-Officio on the Tennessee Farm Bureau Women’s Leadership State Committee for one year.
