Their golden journey speaks volumes about their commitment, going beyond numbers to a legacy of conservation and innovation.
The festivities are set to light up the Kehoe Center on 175 Mansfield Avenue, Shelby. Be there between 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM. But remember, to be a part of this gala, you’ve got to book your spot before August 24. Want more info? Just dial 419-755-4542.
