Clean Harbors 32nd Annual Charity Golf Outing

Curt Ignacio - President of Marion, and Mike Foley - VP of Sales, attended the Annual Clean Harbors Charity Golf Outing. The Founder and Chairman of Clean Harbors has hosted this event annually to support the Cam Neely Foundation for Cancer Care. All of the proceeds from this outing are sent directly to this cancer foundation.

Alan McKim and Bill McKim from Clean Harbors both had kind words to say about their relationship with Marion Body Works. Over 150 golfers participated in this fun event for a worthwhile cause. Marion was a sponsor of the event along with other well known names including Peterbilt and Maxon. It was a great day for a great cause!

Marion Supports Manawa Veterans Memorial

One value that stands strong in Marion Body Works’ history is to support local communities. This year has been no exception as Marion gave to the Manawa Veterans Memorial. The vision behind this Memorial was to construct a lasting tribute to the Veterans who have served and all who are serving today. Many local businesses have come together to support and honor our veterans through this project. Marion Body Works is proud to be a sponsor and donated $5,000 to help fund the construction of the Freedom Park Memorial Project. Everyone at Marion takes great pride in the support of our Veterans and those that have served to help protect our freedom.

The Vison of the Manawa Veterans Memorial

The Manawa Area Veterans Freedom Park will be a lasting tribute to those who have served in the United States Armed Forces. The Memorial is intended for ANY veteran who has honorably, living or deceased or whom is currently serving.

The construction of the park will be built on the shores of the beautiful Lake Manawa in Manawa, Wisconsin. The goal is to complete the Veterans side of the park and have it dedicated on Veterans Day, 2017.
