FAWN (Forestry Awareness Week Now)
Forestry Awareness Week Now is an educational program established as an outdoor classroom for all the sixth graders in Clarke County including public, private, city and home schooled students. The instructors, who are resource professionals from local agencies and timber producers, provide seven lessons, which are forest management, soils, environmental history, wildlife management, project wild, tree identification, and forest products. As the schools arrive they are divided into seven groups according to homerooms and color of t-shirts (each shirt has sponsors names) that are provided by FAWN coordinators. The seven groups are then guided by trail guides and rotated accordingly throughout the day to each station. The event is held for three days to accommodate all of the schools in Clarke County.
Drug Elimination, Search and Rescue
This project will be able to help our Sheriff Deputies rescue citizens from dangerous grounds whenever it’s needed. Being that Perry County is a rural county, we are mostly dealing with activities in wooded areas.
ROUND EM UP
“ROUND EM UP” was a grant in which we were able to purchase livestock panels through the help of ALA-TOM RC&D Grant. These panels will be used during livestock shows. The panels will keep the animals safe as well as the people supporting the show.
Craig Fence Project
The Dallas County Board requested funds to erect a nine(9) gauge galvanized chain link fence between Bruce K. Craig Elementary School and the adjacent lumber yard. The fence is 6′ in height and 540 feet in length with two vehicle gates with locking capability to allow vehicles from the lumberyard to enter and exit.
