Education Committee:
The Education Committee
utilizes the annual conference for education venues and looks for speakers and workshop presenters that can address current
educational needs. New for 2002, it has been split into children's and adult education committees, with some goals overlapping.
The Children's Ed Committee actively participates
in Ag in Montana Schools programs at our respective locales. It takes advantage of education opportunites through AAW and
contact experts and fellow members for educational materials, forums, and methods. It also encourages FFA and 4-H communication
and program assistance.
The Adult Ed Committee concentrates on meeting the
needs of member education and other areas of interest. It works with the Program and Legistrative committees on issues that
may need focus. It also contacts Chambers of Commerce in members' home towns to offer organization, participation and other
help with their designated Ag tours and other Ag-related events while encouraging their involvement in MAW activies. The Adult
Committee looks for opportunities to develop programs that will educate the urban community about agriculture, as well.
