Big change ... This picture, taken from the same spot as when Kennedy Implement was just starting its move to the current location, now shows a customer reception area and parts room that is full, organized and always ready for use. Owner Denny Kennedy, and the employees, are eager to show off the new place during their open house.

To celebrate the success of the the new location, Kennedy Implement will be holding an open house and customer appreciation day on Friday, March 2.

Along with cookies and coffee offered from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., a free beef lunch will be held at noon and door prizes will be awarded. The old bottle of inexpensive wine time-capsuled in the walls of the old location will even be opened for some brave employees to sample.

There will be specials on parts and on tractors. A wide variety of machinery will be on display.

The move during March and April 2006 went well.
