In September, Mrs. Sandstrom’s 2nd grade class was matched with an Ag Pen Pal through the Nebraska Farm Bureau Foundation. We were lucky enough to be matched with local farmer and rancher, Leo Vander May. Since September we have exchanged several letters and video messages with Leo. On Thursday, with the help of his daughter Annabelle, Leo came for a visit. With him he brought a cow named Dream, a calf named Lola, and a friendly rooster that goes by “Colonel Sanders.” We were also able to meet and love on his trusty sidekick, Jane. The kids learned so much from Leo and had a great time. Our class looks forward to more letters, messages and visits from Leo throughout the year!!
