💙 Thank You, City of Marion,! 💙

The Marion Leadership in Action Class of 2026 would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to the City of Marion and its leadership team for such an engaging and inspiring experience.

Hearing from city leadership and learning about the many departments that serve our community gave our class a deeper appreciation for the collaboration and care that makes Marion the best place in Iowa to raise and family and grow a business. We’re grateful for the time, insight, and dedication shared with us. This is how we can all Reach Higher!

Thank you for investing in our class and in the future of Marion. 💙

✨ Big things are coming to Marion Iowa next winter… and this is the team making it happen! ✨

Meet the 2025–2026 Marion Leadership in Action class — a group of community-minded leaders who are ready to bring something magical to Uptown Marion this winter.

We’re officially kicking off our annual community project, and trust us… you’re going to love what’s in store.

Over the next few weeks, we’ll be sharing:
• What we’re building for Uptown Marion ❄️
• How this project supports local businesses & community spaces
• How YOU can get involved (and maybe even win some prizes…)
• Event announcements, fundraising milestones, and behind-the-scenes fun

If you love Marion, winter traditions, local small businesses, or just seeing cool ideas come to life — follow along and tag a friend so they don’t miss the excitement!

This is going to be good. Like really good.
