Trivia Night and Library highlighted at October meeting
Perkins County Chamber was held Thursday Oct 16 at the Perkins County Senior Center at Noon with 15 in attendance.
Val Foster with the Hastings Memorial Library came and spoke to us about having communication and information QR codes at businesses and possible on screens that businesses have. We have also purchased 3 digital picture frames that could be used to show what events are being held in the county with pictures as well. More details to come as we work on this future project.

Doors open at 6 p.m. and trivia starts at 7 p.m. Sign up with a team of 6 with Bryan Sestak at Countryside Insurance.
