LEGISLATIVE LUNCHEON
JANUARY 3RD
Local District
Supervisors, County Commissioners from the four surrounding Soil and Water Conservation Districts recently attended a meeting
with Representative, Wendy Jaquet; Representative, Donna Pence
and Senator, Michelle Stennett. The meeting was very informative and entertaining as we invited the
Gooding High School Envirothon Team and their Supervisors Dave and Becky Freiberg to explain how the competition works.
We also enjoyed Districts presentations on the highlighted activities for the year. The Gooding
SCD invited Eric Moore, to talk about the Community Garden established last summer 2011.
The
Soil Conservation Districts would like to thank you to the Legislators that take our local experiences and word as they report
to the Capital on January 9th. A special thanks to the ladies of the Basque Association who
fixed lunch and prepared the hall.
