MARION, Ill. — This county seat is putting together three big events to mark America's 250th birthday, according to KFVS12.
Specifics on dates, venues, and the nature of the planned events were not detailed in the source reporting. This paper will report further particulars as organizers release them.
In a county that keeps close track of its own history, marking the nation's 250 years is one more chapter Marion intends to write in full public view.
