Item Description
Support our state bird along with promoting the SCTCC Welding program when you win this auction for a Loon's Nest.
Every year, Welding students build loon pontoon rafts to showcase applied learning in preparation for professional, scholarly, and civic lives after graduation. Each new class makes modifications that reflect course requirements, such as metallurgy and fabrication courses.
In 2016 on Big Mantrap Lake, nearly 73% of loon eggs were laid on the rafts, with the remaining in natural nests. The hatch rate for the raft versus the nest was pretty substantial: there was an 86% hatch rate on the raft versus 36% on the natural nest.
This auction includes the pontoons, base, and cage.
