Flashback to '76

In 1976, Shirley Camp was Extension Adviser, Home Economics in Carroll County. She had been there since 1973. Her bachelor's degree was from Western Illinois University in 1971. I am not sure of other counties that Shirley worked in, but she did have a long University of Illinois Extension Career.

In later years she became a Registered Dietician and served as a Nutrition and Wellness Educator. After her retirement, she began work with Mrs. Wages canning company, and is currently billed as a Canning Expert. Here is her current photo.                                        

Consumers can contact Shirley at mrswages.com. She is available to answer questions. There are also some interesting canning videos featuring Shirley.

It's good to see that one of our former co-workers is still providing important information to home canning enthusiasts.

In addition, I believe Shirley still writes nutrition articles for the Journal of Nutrition Education and Behavior. Forty three years, and still hard at it! And--she also helps with a family orchard business.
