The Binford Grocery & Hardware Store opened this week a brought a smile back to the face of Binford and surrounding community members faces. The new store is a wonderful building with a great selection of food and hardware items. We still need to make our goal, for we still have expenses to meet. But, thank you to everyone who has contributed time and funding. You make Binford Great! |

| Friends of Binford, The smiles have returned to the residents of Binford's faces, as a dream has become reality. As you can see by the photos on the News page, the new Binford Grocery and Hardware Store has opened. We thank everyone who has donated time and funds to this project, centered around the love of our home town. WE ARE NOT FINISHED YET... We still need to raise funds to reach our $300,000 goal, to finance the rest of the project. If you have considered donating to our project, we ask that you find it in your heart to do so now. If you have already given, and can dig a little deeper, we would greatly appreciate your generosity. The citizens, friends, and alumni of our community, have wonderful memories of a prosperous Binford. With your help, we will continue to build dreams for those who keep our community the great city we all call home, Binford. Thanks from Binford! - The Binford Grocery/Hardware Finance Committee, Ron Halvorson |
