In December the 2nd year Turfgrass Management class were taken into Calgary to Oakcreek and was given a full day of reel grinding and maintenance. The students were given a half day of theory on how the reel is assembled, how it cuts, and maintaining a sharp and efficient reel.

For the afternoon the students took part in disassembling and assembling reels. They also learned and set up height of cut, reel to bed knife setting, and sharpening and grinding. This was part of the Turfgrass Equipment Maintenance class which is in the second year of the diploma program.
