Matt Jungmann’s giving a team tour of the @FPShow grounds tonight with an update on Wednesday And Thursday’s mock pipeline strike. Listen for the boom when they strike a 200 psi line and remind yourself: call 811 before you install drainage tile! #811 #FPS19

Jon Roberts of Koscisuko County was named IASWCD supervisor of the Year this week. Award sponsored by IPF. Fun fact: Roberts has credit for not missing a weekly meeting of Kiwanis in 46 years!
