splendid grounds of the Arbor Day
Farm. However, being Nebraska in
winter, Mother Nature showed her
temperamental side and provided
a good snow storm before the
week was out, allowing fine snow
angels to be crafted by some very
hardy souls.
The class of 2013 came away from
MFI energized and ready to tackle
important issues in their municipal forestry programs. Matthew
Stephens summed up the sentiments of many of the attendees
when he said, "MFI is an amazing one-week adrenaline shot for
your urban forestry program!" Our
congratulations to this impressive
group of graduates.
