Harlan County Extension Office Manager Three new Harlan County 4-H road signs were placed around Oxford and along highway 6 in western Harlan County over Christmas break. This project to erect new and update old 4-H road signs began in 2019 by Harlan County 4-H Council members. There are now seven signs scattered across the county, along highways 183, 136, 89 and 6. Funding for the new 4-H road signs was made possible by generous donations from long time 4-H supporters: the Kenneth Bantam family, the Jared and Michelle Baker family, Peterson Livestock of Orleans, and TwoPTurf of Orleans. Volunteers -- North Harlan 4-H Club members; Kenton Peterson, Wayne Rawson, Kevin Peterson, Mavrik Peterson and Karson Peterson
