Last Friday, 18 students in the Natural Resources classes went out to Pine Lake State Park. This was the culmination of a 3 week project were students built their own fishing rods in class. Students got the chance to test their rods out on Pine Lake. While on the trip, students got the chance to enjoy our natural resources, catch fish, and grill up some hot dogs. The weather was perfect and students enjoyed catching many different kinds of local game fish.
