Dave Woods Honored by Long Soil Conservation Career
A tribute to Dave Woods who on April 30 retired after 33 years and seven months as a soil conservationist. The piece notes his integrity, impact on soil and water conservation, and the era of the Soil Conservation Service, with praise from colleagues and friends. It also mentions Georgia and the family settling in Green County and a light remark about potential retirement work. It closes with well wishes and a nod to Cal Kraemer becoming Chippewa County Agent and Donna Kraemer’s hoped involvement.
