Official State Soil: Drummer
June 20th

Drummer soils are named after a hunting dog whose owner shot him after he did poorly during a hunt. Feeling remorseful, the owner named the area after the dog, Drummer. People say that the dog was buried nearby the area where these soils were first described.
