If you are interested in getting more rangeland and natural resource information into your local schools, be sure to join us for the first ever “K-12 Rangeland Curricula Showcase”. Effort has already begun across the West to create curriculum for Kindergarten through 12th grade. SRM members and educators will be at the Showcase to provide interactive, hands-on displays of the curriculum each has developed. There will be curricula for all age levels, some that have been implemented widely, and others that are just beginning. In addition to the classroom curricula, Range Camps and regional rangeland and natural resource competitions will be at the Showcase. This will be a one-stop opportunity to see what others are doing, learn some new tips and tricks, and more importantly, find new ways to excite and encourage your state's youth to explore rangelands as a college major and a career. The next generation of Society members, and the future of our rangelands, is waiting for us to spark their interest through any one of these different opportunities to expose our youth to the rich diversity and opportunities rangeland can provide. Please be sure to join us for the Showcase.
