"When I turned in my resume, I didn't even know what irrigation was. I had no experience whatsoever, and now I definitely feel confident and have a better understanding of irrigation installation." "I really enjoyed meeting and working with teens from all over Sonoma County. I also found the building of the control boxes really interesting and fun." Teen Apprentices from TAP 2018
