I ran across some information on the University of Missouri Extension website tonight that I wanted to share. 

The MU student chapter of the Society of American Foresters (SAF) will host a fundraiser this spring.  The annual Rent-a-Forester fundraiser.   Approximately 17 University of Missouri forestry students are available on a first come, first serve basis to help trim shrubs and trees. 

Their goal is to raise $2,500 to cover the expense of attending the 2009 national SAF convention this fall in Orlando, Florida.

The held this fundraiser last year as well and their time slots filled up fast so ontact members of the chapter for more information!

For more information, contact one of the following chapter officers: Dave Haberl, president, at djhwv9@mizzou.edu; Shane Botard, vice president, at sabn8c@mizzou.edu; or Ashley Owens, secretary, at amowwd@mizzou.edu.

What a clever and unique way to use their skills to earn the money they need to attend this convention!
