BFI Announces a Successful
Campaign!
WE DID IT!
Congratulations to you, business and community leaders of Bay County,
on
your successful investment in the future of our community. It is with great pride that we announce today our community's outstanding response to the The Future Is Now! campaign and look ahead to the growth and prosperity our community will enjoy because of your support and investment.
The generosity of our community has been strongly evidenced by the The Future is Now! campaign
surpassing the original goal of $1.2 million, ending in a pledge total of
$1,239,430 with additional pledges pending! In a challenging economic environment, Bay County has made the decision to determine and create its own successful economic destiny.
Our community owes special thanks to a group of individuals who made time in their busy schedules to secure our community's future. These leaders made the difference by leading the way with their "hands on" help. Thank you!
