In September of 2015, the Nevada Radon Education Program held a booth at the Nevada Agricultural Experiment Station’s Field Day to hand out radon test kits and educate the public about the radon health risk, how to test and how to fix a home with a radon problem.
Field Day is an annual collaboration among University of Nevada’s College of Agriculture, Biotechnology and Natural Resources, the Nevada Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension. The public learned about each organization’s programs via exhibits, demonstrations, food and fun.
The event brought in more than 500 attendees, where 132 of those individuals visited the Radon Education booth. About 57 radon test were distributed.
