CAMP |Continued from page 1

com.

The students also learned about the horticulture program and participated in a propagation activity. Students listened to faculty and staff discuss how to apply for college, how to become a competitive scholarship candidate, and how to apply for financial aid, they also had the opportunity to speak with faculty individually for any advice or interests.

When students got free time they learned how to zip line and rock wall climb. At Sam Houston University, students learned about the university’s wildlife and rural economics programs, there the students learned how to measure and record antlers and compete in sales pitches and mini engineering feats. The students also learned about the agriculture engineering technology program where they were able to learn how to operate heavy machinery and make pvc sprinkler systems. The Lobos took a tour of the campus and listened to faculty discuss the Sam Houston application and scholarship process and on their downtime got to spend time in the Kat Klub bowling and playing pool. Longview Lobos enjoyed the experience and learned about college living and expectations. New students will be attending Ag in the Pineywoods Camp next year.
