A great group of people working hard for Marion.

Behind every event, program, and MBA initiative is a group of people helping guide the vision and support our work.

We are so thankful for our board members and partners who give their time and energy to our organization and community.

When I stopped to have two keys cut this morning at Spencer's Hardware for Ledbetter Properties, I also had to bring home these gorgeous ferns and tradescantia zebrina. Their hanging baskets and garden plants were in beautiful condition. You may also spy 👀 geraniums from Painters Greenhouse in the second picture. They are thriving! Thanks for the beautiful 🌿 plants! Shopping local, whenever possible, is so important for the local economy and the small business owners.

These purchases also checked off some of the squares on my Bingo card for April.
