Summer is here!
Our local businesses continue to thrive, thanks to your dedication and resilience. This season, we are excited to announce a series of updates to Library Plaza as part of our Webster Walkability Initiative! In collaboration with The Town of Marshfield, we are continuing to follow through on the 2021 community survey that was done to bring much needed improvements to that area.
We also want to extend our gratitude to those who have contributed to other beautification and development projects around Marshfield. Your efforts are making our town an even more attractive destination for both residents and visitors.
As always, the Chamber is here to support you. Please feel free to reach out with any ideas, questions, or feedback. Together, we can continue to build a prosperous and dynamic community.
Wishing you a wonderful and successful summer full of sunny days and warm nights! The summer season is such a special time for our community.
Warm regards,
Lara
