Cook County Envirothon team has great finish at state competition

The 2017 Minnesota State Envirothon was held Monday, May 15 at Ironwood Springs in Stewartville, Minnesota. The Cook County Envirothon team finished in an impressive 4th place. 

The competition, sponsored by the Minnesota Association of Soil and Water Conservation Districts, is not by school divisions. All schools in the state compete equally, which makes the 4th place finish all the more remarkable, said Envirothon Coach April Wahlstrom.
