Congrats to Marie Pitts for winning the game! There were 636 in the jar & she guessed the closest at 546. We have a gift here for you at the office, when you can stop by!

Stop by the Extension Office tomorrow and Friday to help celebrate Homemakers week, by taking a guess at how many buttons are in the jar! Closest guess without going over, will win a prize.
