Testimonials

"FCN is pleased to be a part of a publication that focuses on the same principle as our bank, serving our communities. We take pride in being a local business and supporting local businesses like the Beacon."
- Beth Siebert, VP, Impact Officer, FCN Bank

The Dearborn County Fair was going through some changes and we needed to get this information out to the people of Dearborn County and surrounding area. Our budget is limited so we are glad that The Beacon could help us out and stay within our budget. We set record attendance and stayed within our budget thanks to Celeste and The Beacon.
- Duane Bischoff, President, Dearborn County Fair Board

The Beacon works with us closely, guiding and helping us to maximize our potential in advertising and getting the word out about our events and activities. They take the time to explain how things work or make positive suggestions so we can get the best return for our efforts.
- Terri Trowbridge, Executive Director Ripley County Tourism Bureau

Thank you, The Beacon, for a successful partnership!"
