Members of the Montague County Commissioner’s Court opened their meeting with an award presentation to the historical commission and a review of the year by county 4-H members.
Wayne Woods, chairman of the county historical commission, and several members of the group were on hand to receive a 2023 Distinguished Service Award from the Texas Historical Commission.
County Judge Kevin Benton read the award which notes the many contributions these commissions provide for their communities across the state not only in preserving history, but also contributing to the economy through their work.
Woods thanked the court and invited them to the group’s fish fry in August that supports the work in preserving and restoring cemeteries in the county.
AgriLife Extension Agents Justin Hansard and Melanie Stott, who help coordinate the county 4-H clubs, invited the children to talk about their activities and awards this past year.
