With the assistance of the Mantrap Valley Conservation Club, Park Rapids Girl Scout Troop #330 constructed wood duck houses. MVCC member Dave Gansen shared the importance of these nesting boxes for habitat and hatching. Each Scout will place a box in a wooded area near a slough, wetland or lake this spring.
