RRCC helps out Borderland Humane Society - 1.27.14
Last week, Rainy River Community College students went to newly-opened Borderland Humane Society to measure and make a materials list of everything needed to cut holes in the cat cages to allow the cats to roam back and forth.
The project took a little teamwork. While two students cut holes and sanded them down to be smooth, other students cut PVC pipe to fit the holes. The pipe is expected to be installed this week.
According to an RRCC official, Mike Turenne, RRCC foundation board member, contacted the college to find out if the industrial maintenance class could do some community volunteer work modifying these cat cages.
Mike Koski, who teaches the class, thought it would be a great way for the college and his class to give back.
An industrial technology student at Rainy River Community College volunteers at the Borderland Humane Society last week. Students cut holes in the cat cages to allow the animals more freedom roam.
The experience at the humane society gave students some hands-on learning, while helping out the newly-opened facility.
