A week and a half ago (we're catching up on photos), we visited the Lost 40 and Dora Lake in the Chippewa National Forest, where we spent the day learning about local ecology. We explored the conservation efforts by the Department of Natural Resources (DNR), including how they work to preserve the area’s lakes, wetlands, and unique habitats.
The Veterans' Day program was a heartfelt tribute to honor the courage, dedication, and sacrifice of our veterans and their families. Through speeches, moments of silence, and presentations, attendees expressed profound gratitude for the men and women who served in the military. The program highlighted the impact of their service, not only on our nation’s freedom and safety but also on the lives of their families. Thank you to all veterans and their families for their unwavering commitment and sacrifices.
NLCS Public Service Announcement. Reminder that tomorrow is dress-up day but please keep your outfits school appropriate and safe! Thank you!
