Impact Report 2010 Kids, Kows, & More Agent sent out invitations to the schools and made a personal call to all of the attending schools. Agent arranged to get supplies from many of the sponsors from throughout the state. Agent arranged the facilities to hold the events at and made maps of each to hand to the teachers at the event. Agent organized 10 volunteers and 4 sponsors on the 18th to come and stuff goody bags for all of the youth that would be attending the program. The next day we had our program in Raton, New Mexico. There were approximately 377 youth and 35 adults at this program. We had presenters from The Southwest Dairy Farmers, New Mexico Cattle Growers, New Mexico State Game & Fish Department, New Mexico State Forestry, and Colfax County Soil and Water Conservancy. The youth were informed of the benefits that each agricultural related field has in everyday life and some of the difficulties that each faces. Student and teacher evaluations indicated that 85% of those in attendance gained increased knowledge of Agriculture.
