Students from Pleasant View Elementary School can visit three interesting areas on the Victory Creek property. The northern boundary is a delightful oak forest with carpets of wildflowers. Shallow areas capture rainwater during heavy rains. The majority of Victory Creek serves as a duck bedroom after being restored to native prairie and wetland vegetation as part of a cooperative project with the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service and Pheasants Forever. The property contains about 61% hydric soils, as well as 1,800 feet of tributary to the Root River.
