Logo
The roof of the home symbolizes our past heritage with Extension Homemakers. The letters

C (Community)
E (Education)
make it a suitable logo by the state, county, and club. The house without walls confirms a commitment to membership open to all, regardless of race, color, creed, religion, sex, age, handicap, or national origin.
