Marion County’s official millennium celebration will start at 11:30 p.m. Friday in Central Park. A parade of participants will end at midnight on the west lawn of the courthouse. The courthouse will feature two displays by Dave Hett. One is a large “2000” mounted on the courthouse to be lighted when the clock strikes midnight. The other is a large metal ball that will be lowered on the courthouse flagpole.

Emmanuel Baptist Church in Marion is expanding with a 44x60 addition just west of the church. An enclosed walkway will connect the addition with the existing church.

Grand prizewinner of $1,000 in the Marion County Record-sponsored “Christmas On Us! promotion was Rex Wilson of Marion. Receiving second prize of $500 was Janie Meierhoff. Alice Gordon and Margaret Harris each received $250 third place awards.
