This will be the 31st Conservation Field Day. In the early days, the field days were for high school students, but eventually were offered to fifth graders instead. We expect 650 students over the 2 day period. We have ten stations manned by various resource people. Students will experience a wagon ride, learn about minerals, the Forest Service, air quality, insects, the water cycle, soil, wildlife, etc.

This is a two day event, Oct. 4 and 5.
