On Friday, Feb. 27, Ace Hardware owners, Tim and Lacretia McDonald, hosted their official grand opening and ribbon-cutting ceremony. Many citizens, business leaders and even Madison County's newly-crowned royalty, Katelyn McCamman and Ali Parks, 2015 Teen Miss and Miss Madison County, came out to support the McDonalds at their grand opening. Despite festivities, shoppers were busily checking out the new store and buying supplies. Employees were dedicated to assisting customers and made sure they were graciously greeted at the door. It is certain that Ace Hardware will make a positive addition to the Madison community as they have already begun to do so. Madison County is growing by leaps and bounds-- perhaps this is due to hard-working business leaders such as the McDonalds-- people who are filled with honesty, integrity and warmly welcome every person who steps through their building's entrance. Congratulations on a successful grand opening!
