[Jeanette Hurst]

Please let people know that we have gotten our county it's own URL, to use if they want to do their taxes themselves and still bring money from the IRS back into our community, the IRS will count every time someone uses our URL as a Vita number which will bring up our numbers and allow us hopefully the opportunity to get more money from them next year. Lets cross our fingers people use this URL, its and easy way to get our numbers even higher in Humboldt. Thank you all!!
