Chamber of Commerce, Ribbon Cutting at the WCHS museum on June 24th, 2026

A ribbon cutting ceremony was held at the Williamson County Historical Society on Wednesday, June 24th, 2026 at 2 P.M. as part of the society recently joining the Marion Chamber of Commerce. The event was well attended by between 25 to 30 people. Those attending were WCHS board members, Marion city officials including Mike Absher, mayor of Marion, and various WCHS supporters and chamber members. Those attending were treated to touring the museum to see the latest additions to the museum, mostly related to the 250 event and the service of veterans who have served in our county throughout a series of conflicts and wars in our nation’s history.
