The OLG Mariner 4H afterschool club recently installed their officers for the 2015-16 year. The installation ceremony was conducted by Rhonda Cummins, Calhoun County Extension Agent, Coastal & Marine Resources. At the ceremony Cummins gave the President a hammer to symbolize power and order; the Vice-president received blueprints to symbolize careful planning and organization; the Reporter was presented a power drill to make some noise as she promotes their club; and the Secretary was given a pencil and ruler to symbolize taking notes and marking carefully the progress and achievements of the club.

“As club officers you must strive to build a strong club that will last even after you leave the club, just as a carpenter builds a strong, sound house to last after he or she is gone,” Cummins told the new officers.
