Extension Cords
Extension Welcomes You
University of Illinois Extension EXTENDS a warm welcome to all ages and encourages each of you to make connections with the source of research based information through one of our program circuits very soon.
Your extension cord may be useful to charge the battery of your phone so that you can call our office for assistance. OR Maybe your family will plug their extension cord into your computer and Internet system for easy access to the most current information, forms, calendar of events, and links to other resources at any time of the day or night.
Some of you may use an extension cord and lamp for a bright light to read our publications and newsletters at the conclusion of your work day. Yet, others may plug your "Extension" cord in directly with a visit to the Ford-Iroquois Extension Office in Onarga.
Discover what your "Extension" cord can do to improve the quality of life for you, your family, and your community. We look forward to hearing from you soon.
