County joins Arrow Head RC & D
The Arrow Head Country Resource Conservation and Development Council voted to accept Kosciusko County into the R CAD area. This acceptance will enable local residents to initiate and direct the RC A D concept in their county. The area will now include eight counties: Newton, Jasper, Pulaski, Starke, Kosciusko, Marshall, Fulton and White. Ideas and projects in several counties can be shared and accomplished sometimes easier than a single county can. These residents can join together and work with available natural resources to benefit their community and improve the quality of life. Through this RC A D Area, additional technical and financial assistance may be made available few various projects. The sponsors supporting RC A D in this county include the county commissioners, Soil and Water Conservation District, and the county extension board. A representative from each of these three groups will serve on the RC A D council to work with cooperating groups and agencies to develop ongoing plans which evaluate local needs, potentials and possible action. These plans include support to the resource committees. The Water Resource Committee is presently undertaking a major water quality study in the area, and the Wildlife committee will be sponsoring various educational projects and workshops on wildlife plantings, honey bee clinics, trapper’s clinics and bluebird habitat. The Forestry Committee will be doing timber stand improvement projects, educational Reid trips and tree planting workshops. „ These are just a few existing
