The formal check presentation happened Friday with the 10 Squared + Men of Guthrie County as they were awarded the Panora Chamber of Commerce.

Members of the Chamber received $20,500 from 10 Squared member Barry Monaghan on the Panora Square. The donation covers nearly two thirds of the cost for the Chamber’s new downtown speaker project. Monaghan told those that were in attendance that this donation catapulted the donation total for the 10 Squared + Men over $400,000, and they still have one donation left to give out this year.
