Photos by Alicia Knadler Local teens excel in 2011 Forestry Challenge Greenville High School stu- dents earnedfourth place Oct. 15 in the 2011 Shasta Forestry Challenge at Lassen Pines Camp near Shingletown. There were a total of 12 teams from seven schools in the four-day challenge. The Greenville team was an experienced one, composed of seniors Geoffrey Guthrie, Ju- lia Kusel and Tucker Willits. The competition was very tight this year, teacher Travis Rubke said. There were only eight points separating first place from fourth. "They did an excellent job of developing a solution to this year's Forestry Challenge prob- lem and did an outstanding job of presenting their solution to the judges," Rubke said. The team also earned third in the pacing contest, which is held each year as part of the challenge. One of the highlights for the students this year was the op- P0rtunity to learn about forest management planning and to create a long-range plan for a 160-acre privately owned parcel near the Lassen National Forest. After spending a day visit- ing the site to collect field data and interact with natural re- source professionals, students weighed in on some key is- sues, including timber produc- tion, watercourse protection, biodiversity and wildfire risk. During the challenge, teams of students also completed field trainihg, followed by a field test, to assess their tech- nical forestry knowledge and data collecting skills. "Bringing students to the forest to learn from working professionals makes the infor- mation real and applicable," said one of the teachers pre- sent. "Students that partici- pate keep the information and memories forever." "The Forestry Challenge has allowed me to experience and learn about something I would normally never h.ave the op- tion of doing," said a student. "They have been a great team," Rubke said of Guthrie, Kusel and Willits. "I will miss working with them next year, and my challenge now will be to work on putting together a team for next year."
