| Impact Report | Progressive Agriculture Safety Day The agent coordinated the annual Progressive Agriculture Safety Day that was held at the Eastern New Mexico State Fairgrounds in Roswell. Students from public and private schools in the Roswell, Dexter, and Hagerman communities attended the camp over a two-day period. Youth received instruction on ten topics including Sun Safety, Bloodborne Pathogens, PTO/Lawnmower Safety, Firearm Safety, Animal Safety, ATV Safety, Water Safety, 9-1-1, Fire Safety, and Food Safety. A total of 823 elementary school students and their teachers and chaperones attended the day camp and gained information that can prevent serious accidents or health problems from occurring. Evaluations completed by the school teachers showed the topics were relevant to the students’ safety and students gained information that could save their lives or will assist to keep them healthy. Life skills gained included learning to make healthy lifestyle choices, disease prevention, and personal safety. The agent attended a Progressive Agriculture Safety Day Coordinator Training in Lincoln, Nebraska, in order to be approved to conduct a Safety Day in the Chaves County area. |
