Yesterday, I went to Auburn to attend a Natural Resource Outreach Committee. It was very productive. We decided to make a forestry awards banquet a new thing where the top forestry awards will be presented. This was a very good move on the part of the committee. Awards such as Tree Farmer of the Year, W. Kelley Mosley Awards, Helene Mosley Awards and others will be awarded. Also a plaque or wall of winners will be made and displayed in the forestry building at Auburn University . This banquet will be in February and will be a nice event.
I was able to meet and talk to Dr. Shepard, the new Dean of the School of Forestry , Auburn University . He met with the committee and was instrumental in helping make this awards banquet a reality. Dr. Shepard was Mississippi State ’s loss and a great gain for Auburn University . I was impressed with what he plans to do at Auburn .
Tomorrow, fertilize round-up corn and possible cut more downed trees up on property.
