Taking a walk down memory lane has become much easier on the Iola square. Attached to each light post is a metal sign with photos and information about that particular spot in Iola. Members of the Community Involvement Task Force and Pride conducted the year-long project.
“Our mission statement is to beautify the town and get people interested in the community,” Donna Houser said.
A grant helped fund the project.
A group of seven — Kara Godfrey, Shelia Lampe, Jim Smith, Houser, Mike and Nancy Ford and Judy Brigham — selected photos and information for the signs.
