With the help of Physical Education teacher, Mr. Branon, our class got to see how we tap a maple tree. The use of a new high powered drill, precision guide, and newer buckets showed our students what current and modern sugaring looks like. Mr. Branon talked about how we pick the spot on the tree for tapping, considering old holes and following large branches upward. He asked lots of questions and the students did a very nice job in telling him what we have learned so far in our class. Next Wednesday the kindergarten classes will all go to two sugar houses. One is the Branon's newer style sugar house and another will show students what it looked like many years ago.
