Custom Coasters for the U.S. Forest Service: In December of 2023, Congressman GT Thompson happily presented Associate Chief of the U.S. Forest Service Angela Coleman with cherry wood coasters handmade by technology education students in the Forest Area School District (Forest County). These students worked diligently to provide beautifully carved coasters made from cherry hardwood straight from the Allegheny National Forest. GT commented that it was a privilege to deliver these on behalf of the students. Our students are honored to be part of the Allegheny National Forest Centennial Celebration!
