County Extension seeks to fill seat

The Extension Office in Carlton has an opening for a member from District 3 to serve a three-year term starting in 2023, a University of Minnesota Extension news release said this week.

The Extension Committee serves in an advisory role for programming by identifying local issues to guide the direction of Extension’s educational programs and services.

The Extension Committee meets five times per year. Meetings are typically held from 4 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. at the Carlton County Transportation Building on the third Tuesday every other month.

The committee membership includes two county commissioners, the county auditor or designee, and six county citizens, appointed by the County Board.
