Range Judging Practice



We are studying range ecosystems and getting prepared for a range judging school in Woonsocket this coming week.  The students in the bottom picture got wet but were great sports about it!  A special thanks to Brad Ufen and his family for helping us set up a practice site and allowing us to use their property.  Also thanks to Kent Baumberger from the NRCS for his help in teaching the students.
