It’s time to beautify Junction City.

Beautification of the city will be an early goal for the new Junction City Area Chamber of Commerce CEO Dennis Beson.

“I think we need to put a little shine on the community. We need to also instill Junction City pride. Everybody needs to take a little time to look around, not just at their property, but their neighbor’s property and perhaps what’s happening downtown. ” Beson noted one of the first things he saw in the city was great potential, saying “the people just need to take a little closer look.”

Beson plans to form a committee to work on this effort.
