Welcome back to Bell Prairie! I hope everyone had a fantastic summer.
 
As promised In late April / May I introduced a pen of the month. If you have a small business or large corporation and would like to donate 35 – 30 pens to be on display in the front office it is a way for you to advertise for FREE! The plan is to sponsor 2 businesses a month. I will continue to collect your donations all year.

To kick us off in May we had Argosy Casino and RPG.  Our sponsors for August are  Clarity Auto Glass and Weber Orthodontics .  

If you have questions or dropping off pens please address those to Lisa Fischer in the Office. 816-321-4597
