Olympia’s 2nd block Ag Class took a trip on Thursday, April 14th last week to Cross Implement in Minier. The students took a tour and participated in their testing of vehicles day.
Cross Implement invited Mr. Hoffman’s class to participate in this event. Many pieces of equipment were available to test that day.
The tour included seeing where they store all of their parts and even the upstairs attic where extra parts are. Also meeting a good amount of workers their especially the technicians that work on the equipment.
Ag teacher Mr. Hoffman said, “The thing I most enjoyed about this trip was getting the behind the scenes tour of the parts department and the shop.”
One of the biggest surprises of the tour was their parts shop. In the room was worth one million dollars of tiny parts.
One of the most fun parts about this trip was getting to drive the equipment. They had mowers for us to test out and drive in a little mapped out circuit.
Senior Thomas Hallstein said, “Driving the mowers was a lot of fun and especially driving around with my bros, I hope to see us mowin’ like that when we get older.”
This trip was a good experience for the students to see if they would enjoy working in a place like Cross Implement. This was a day the students won’t forget.
