Impact Report | Youth on farms and ranches learn how to do things at a very young age. Saftey is key when young people use a lawn mower or play around a grain elevator. Agent worked with other area agents to teach workshops at the 2010 Farm Safety Camp. Over 130 third graders form 9 different schools plus home schooled children participated. 100% of youth went through 8 different stations leaning about the proper way to be safe. These sessions included everything from lawn mower safety to ATV safety. All youth and sponsors were fed lunch, given an evaluation, and given a bag with educational materials in it. As a result, these youth are prepared to be safe when around equipment or other things that could cause injury if they are not paying attention. |
