During a recent government meeting, high school students Cole Abel and Abby Hammer presented on their participation in the New Hampshire Envirothon, an environmental science competition. The Envirothon, previously known as the Environmental Olympics, involves teams from across the country competing in five categories: wildlife, aquatic ecology, forestry, soils, and a current issue topic.
Abel, who has been involved in the program for three years, shared that the Timberlane Envirothon team has achieved significant success, winning the state competition for the second consecutive year. This victory qualifies them to compete at the national level in July. The students expressed their excitement about representing their team and the opportunity to showcase their knowledge and skills in environmental science.
The meeting also included discussions from other attendees, including Mr. Patterson and representatives from Pollard, indicating a packed agenda focused on various community and educational initiatives.
