After receiving a generous donation from the Codding Foundation this year, students were able to tour Mrs. Codding and friends through the museum this week.
It was wonderful to have Mrs. Codding share stories from the early years at the museum and ask our Docents what's new in our program.
Our Husbandry and Public Speaking students did a great job and Mrs. Codding enjoyed her visit.
