Fourth graders toured the Landfill of North Iowa near Clear Lake, IA on Friday, May 5th. We really enjoyed the tour of their facilities and the scavenger hunt as we searched for the answers in their Education Center. We were reminded that it is very important to reduce, reuse, and recycle as much as possible.
