REES Project Committee to Offer Unique Auction Item

The REES Theater Project Committee members plan on offering a Marshall County Courthouse clock tower tour as part of a fundraiser set for this fall.

Committee member Donna Pontius asked the Marshall County Commissioners for permission this week to include a tour of the clock tower as part of an auction item slated for a REES Theater fundraising event on Friday, Oct. 5.

As part of the agreement, successful bidders will need to sign a waiver of liability. The tour won’t be easy as there are ladders to climb in order to get to the final destination. Four people will be able to be part of the tour.

One of the judges or a county commissioner may be a part of the tour.

The commissioners unanimously gave permission for the REES Project members to offer the courthouse clock tower tour as part of an auction event on Oct. 5. More details on the event will be released at a later time.
