Small Business Season

Beyond the Shop Small Saturday, is the opportunity to support local businesses. Let's celebrate our community businesses and help them not just survive this holiday season but to thrive. When you are doing your holiday shopping, look local first. See if there is a local business who can offer the goods and services you are looking for. Commit to spending a portion of your holiday budget at local businesses. Create your holiday shopping list with all the local businesses you love. Share with others. Purchase gift cards (or ChamberChecks) to use at a later date or to give as gifts. If you are shopping from home, find a local business directory at www.mcphersonchamber.org with convenient links to local business websites. Let's support our local businesses, our neighbors and friends who provide jobs and give so much back to our community.

Legacy Eye Care

The name Legacy Eyecare is in honor of Dr. Abrahams’ grandfather, Dr. Norman E. Abrahams, who practiced optometry in Hillsboro KS from 1949 to 1991. Dr. Robert Arnold retired in October 2015, after selecting Dr. Abrahams to continue the practice. In 2020, Legacy Eyecare merged with the two Mid Kansas Eyecare offices in Hesston and Hillsboro in order to serve all of Central Kansas from three convenient locations.

"Optometry for us is much more than clear vision. We very much believe that the eyes are a window to the body and that medical eye exams are an essential part of healthy life."

At Legacy Eyecare you will find doctors dedicated to providing high quality personalized eye care. Routine eye exams are important to maintaining good eye health. Many times, eye and vision problems do not have obvious symptoms or signs, but are easily diagnosed by a licensed optometrist.

Legacy Eyecare sees patients from 3 months old to 105 years old. Let them take care of all your eyecare needs. You can stop by one of their three offices; McPherson - 100 W. Kansas Ave., Suite 202, Hesston - 607 E Randall St, and Hillsboro - 132 S. Main St. Their McPherson office is opened Monday thru Thursday 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. You can call the McPherson office at 620-241-5810. You can check out their website to learn more about Legacy Eyecare. You can follow them on Facebook as well. Get a glimpse of Legacy Eyecare from these photos from the Chamber Connection last Thursday.
