Ten members of the Colleton County Clemson Extension
Advisory Board came together on Monday, February 1 to discuss future endeavors.
The topics discussed include the formation of an Agribusiness team, political
maneuvering for millions of dollars of disaster assistance, and much more
simple plans like the regular brown bag lunch at the Extension office on
Mondays. The five Clemson Extension staffers that were present had prepared handouts
with all the pertinent information and even served up a chili and cornbread
supper.
