Horticulture Club
ALCA:
The Associated Landscape Contractors of America team is a group of approx.
30 people with an interest in the horticulture and landscape industries. We
compete in many different events. They include Perennial and Annual
ID, Weed and Turf ID, Truck and Trailer Operation, Sale Presentation, Personnel
Management, Arboriculture, Wood Construction, and Patio Construction to name
a few. The list totals between 20 and 25 different events in which
students compete. This is a national competition that brings more than 50
colleges and universities together in competition and gives students a chance
to look for future employment and internships at the large career fair.
Next year's competition will be held in Mississippi, and we are ready to
go!
Stu Warren
and
Bryce Lane
