Home, Garden, Sporting Expo raises funds for Martin Beautiful

Home, Garden, Sporting Expo raises funds for Martin Beautiful
The Expo is an opportunity for vendors to showcase their products and offer helpful information and knowledge.
Home improvement suggestions, flower and vegetable gardening and sporting advice – hunting, fishing — these vendors can be the answer to the questions.
There will be seminar speakers in each area, including return speakers Carol Reese and Rob Somerville.
This year’s event is slated for Friday, March 7 at 2 p.m. and Saturday, March 8 at 9 a.m. at the Vincent Implements facility on Hwy. 45 in Martin.
For more information on the event or to become a vendor, contact Audrey Roberts at 587-6327 or visit the MBC’s Web site at www.martinbeautiful.org.
