| Impact Report | The annual Farm Safety Day Camp for Eddy County was held in October at the County fairgrounds. Approximately 900 third grade students from Eddy County participated in the nationally sponsored two day event. Students, teachers, and parent volunteers participated in 11 workshops that focused on the theme of safety. Some of the topics presented were boating safety and hypothermia, bicycle safety, gun awareness, internet safety, wildlife safety, and electrical safety to name a few. Though the event is named “Farm Safety”, the day-camp allowed children from urban settings to learn some of the risks they might encounter around their home, school, and town. Agencies and businesses from around the county volunteered as presenters for the event. The Home Economist assisted the 4-H agent in coordinating the event and was responsible for preparing lunch for the participants and presenters. |
