JBS USA Donation Makes Downtown Beardstown Beautification Possible
Beardstown’s downtown square could use a little facelift to make it more attractive for members of the community, as well as visitors. The square is used for a variety of festivals, parties and parades in town. This investment will strengthen the cultural and community gathering potential by making the square a more comfortable, more attractive and more user-friendly place for residents and visitors by updating benches and lighting, installing new planters, a fountain, a PA system and more.
