Flag Retire

Old, tattered, or worn flags can be retired properly at the Marion County Judge’s office. There is a retirement box available outside his office where flags can be placed. 

Bees

Honeybees are looking for their winter home. If you have bees, don’t call an exterminator. Instead, call Stanford Brantley at 903-742-2765 and let him help remove and relocate them.
