Craig Derickson, Nebraska State Conservationist for the Natural Resources Conservation Service of USDA spoke last night at the Spring Dinner Meeting to the Retirees from his organization. Also shown are Gus Dornbusch and his wife Donna and Gary Muckel peeking over the podium. Craig brought the retirees from SCS/NRCS up-to-date on current activities of the Agency. For over 75 years the Soil Conservation Service (renamed NRCS during the '90's) has provided agricultural producers and private landowners with locally led assistance to help them implement voluntary conservation practices that protect our nation's Natural Resources. I worked for the Agency from 1948 till 1980. Our son Jon began with the Agency while still in College and has in over 35 years. It is a noble calling.
