May 9, 2014
Boundary County students competed at the 32nd annual Idaho State Forestry Contest this past Thursday, May 8, in Careywood, Idaho. And one local student came back home with a third place statewide finish.

Malachi Rivkin, competing in the middle school students division, and representing Boy Scouts of America Troop 114, placed third at the state contest.

We have a more detailed report on the way, but we wanted to get Malachi's achievement out there.
