A reminder, the Hardin County Chamber and Business Alliance is holding an America 250 Hardin County Kick-Off event this Saturday, January 31. It will run from 2 until 4 Saturday afternoon at Veterans Hall in the Hardin County Courthouse. Those attending will hear from Commissioner Tim Striker, meet a descendant of Jacob Parrott, who was the first ever Medal of Honor recipient, and take a guided tour of the historic Courthouse. This is a free event, and all are welcome.
