It used to be that it was easy to get a free calendar; banks, furniture, hardware and other kinds of stores gave them out to their customers. That’s not happening much anymore! The Hillsdale County Emergency Management team is doing it though. Consider it an early Christmas present from them to you.
These calendars are available at the MSU Extension office at 20 Care Dr., in Hillsdale. Come to the Extension office Monday through Thursday from 8:30 a.m. to noon or 1:00 -5:00 p.m. and pick up your free calendar. We will be closed between Christmas and New Year’s. So come out before then or come after January 2nd.
