Diane Sand, edu­ca­tion infor­ma­tion coor­di­na­tor at the Soil and Water Con­ser­va­tion Dis­trict, leads a sheep past a line of pre-school stu­dents at Galion Pri­mary School.

On Oct. 4, employ­ees from the Craw­ford County Soil and Water Con­ser­va­tion Dis­trict spent the day at Galion Pri­mary School. Julie Sand, edu­ca­tion infor­ma­tion coor­di­na­tor, talked to stu­dents in grades pre-K through first grade about the impor­tance of farm ani­mals and what they are used for in a pro­gram called “Live­stock Live.” With the help of Pro­gram Coor­di­na­tor Mike Hall and Tech­ni­cian Don Fish­paw, she had a sheep, calf, goat, chicken and two piglets to show that day.
