Hello, The USDA Forest Service is excited to learn about how the Smokey Bear Reading Challenge went at your location. If you can please take just a few moments to complete the following survey, that would be greatly appreciated: https://forms.office.com/g/QQq84KgKut. We kindly ask for responses by January 31st. Your responses will provide vital information regarding the program's reach across the country. The Forest Service also welcomes any additional stories, pictures, or other information you would like to share about the challenge that you are not able to include in the survey response (just email those to rachel.bayer@usda.gov<mailto:rachel.bayer@usda.gov>). I hope to hear of a strong Michigan response! The resources of the Forest Service are so important, and it's hard not to be thinking of Smokey and all their work considering the current wildfire situation.

"The thing I remember best about successful people I've met all through the years is their obvious delight in what they're doing ... and it seems to have very little to do with worldly success. They just love what they're doing, and they love it in front of others." ~ Fred Rogers
