International Agri-Center has partnered with the Progressive Agriculture Foundation to hold its First Annual Progressive Agriculture Safety Day on October 20, 2010 at the International Agri-Center. This one day event will teach children to keep them safe on a farm, ranch or in their home by doing hands on activities instructed by a professional in that industry. Some of the stations provided will be Tractor Safety, Fire Safety, Animal Safety and Stranger Danger.

Mission: Make farm and ranch life safer and healthier for all children through education and training.
