(Clinton, KY – January 30, 2013) – Chamber of Commerce Sophomore Leadership students Breann Jones, Alex Simmons, Harley Hinshaw and Sydney Harrison (pictured above) chose to focus on creating a logo for Hickman County as their program graduation project. The students researched and came up with four panels representing their home county.

According to the students, the first panel represents the agricultural nature of the community, the second their education, the third the county’s location on the Mississippi River. The fourth panel depicts the importance of family in Hickman County. The students felt that their county is someplace special and decided that would be a fitting slogan for their logo.
