We are pleased to offer a highlight of programs conducted this year in Marion County. Most topics are initiated and guided through input to the Extension Council from citizens and/or content area groups. Interaction with other agencies, through a variety of networks and collaborations plus applied research projects contribute as well to the direction of the overall educational program offerings. Several methods are used to assist a diverse student body in lifelong learning pursuits. We continue to salute our many volunteers, community leaders and extension council members, past and present, who continue giving time and talents supporting the mission. Salute! Yours truly,
