(Woodland, CA) – Another series of Yolo County 101 seminars is being offered to provide residents insight into the form and function of Yolo County government, programs and services.  This informative series of 12 seminars will begin October 15, 2008, with closing ceremonies in late February 2009.  The first seminar will be held at 5:30 p.m. in the Erwin W.

“I’m pleased to see this informational series, that my office started two years ago, continue on as a county-sponsored program,” said Yolo County Supervisor Matt Rexroad.  “Continuation of Yolo County 101 is a priority of the Board of Supervisors and it’s a great way for community members to learn about county government, the services and programs we offer and the issues we face.”
