Groundbreaking Ceremony |
||
A groundbreaking ceremony, Nov. 10, marked construction of an expansion project at the UT Martin McNairy County Center/Selmer. The expansion is funded by a one-time $500,000 state appropriation. The center, in its 10th year of operation, is a joint venture of the city of Selmer and McNairy County, with each contributing $60,000 to the expansion project. Beginning in fall 2009, the 4,330-square-foot expansion will provide four additional classrooms and office space. Among those participating in the ceremony were, from left, Jerry Hartsfield, representing TLM Associates, Inc., of Jackson; Sen.-elect Dolores Gresham; Wilburn Gene Ashe, former McNairy County mayor; Deidra Beene, center director; UT Martin Chancellor Tom Rakes; Selmer Mayor David Robinson; and U.S. Rep. Marsha Blackburn.
