SDSU Extension will
host Hazardous Occupation Safety Training in Agriculture (HOSTA) training on
May 25 and 26, 2017 at the American Legion Hall in Phillip and on May 31 and
June 1, 2017 at the Davison County Fairgrounds in Mitchell.
“If youth are 14
or 15 and working on a farm or ranch that is not their family’s, they are
required by law to attend a training,” said John Keimig, SDSU Extension 4-H
Associate. “Because agriculture work can be dangerous, we encourage all youth
who plan to engage in agriculture work to attend the training.” The trainings
will be held from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on the first day at both locations and 9
a.m. until 1 p.m. the second day.
Independent study materials will be sent to 14-18
year-old participants. SDSU Extension personnel will be coordinating the
training. Upon registration, participants will be sent a training manual. This
will also include a list of the information that the students will be
responsible for before arriving on site as part of the independent study
portion of training.
The first day
will include demonstrations safety in agriculture, including tractor, PTO's,
electrical, and working with pesticides, as well as a written test. The second
day will focus on the driving requirements, and will also include a test.
Completion of all of the above with passing scores is required to receive the
USDOL Certificate of Completion.
Online Registration

From True
Fitness: True Grit is a
sport enhancement program that is tailored to the needs of the athlete and the
demands of his or her sport(s). True Grit focuses on speed,
quickness, and agility as well as improving core stability, strength, and
injury prevention. Workouts are broken down into Thunder and Lightning
days. Thunder workouts focus on power, strength, stability, and
grit. Lightning workouts focus on speed, quickness, and agility. True
Grit is an intense and challenging workout, with the ultimate goal of
improved dynamic and functional athletic performance to give you the edge over
the competition. True Grit is offered to the Junior High
through College athlete.
We would like to
hold our True Grit sessions at our site in Mitchell. If there would be a
greater amount of athletes we could reach by coming to you we would be open to
that idea. Our summer program is an 8 week program where we would meet 3x
per week for a total of 24 total training sessions. Official start date
is June 5th, 2017. Cost of the program would be $250, but if
broken down that’s a little over $10 per session. That cost could be
broken down further by our 10% discount added when kids sign up in larger
groups together. Linked below is our True Grit Handout with all the
necessary information.
