The South Central Human Resource Agency has announced the grand opening and ribbon cutting for the new
Lonnie Norman Coffee Early Head Start facility.
This event will be held at 2:00 pm on Wednesday, April 27, at the new building located at 1206 Oakdale Street in Manchester. Tours of the facility will be available, along with light refreshments. This center is named in honor of the late Lonnie Norman, who was instrumental in the acquisition of the property for this much-needed facility.
Norman was longtime mayor of Manchester who passed away in 2020 during what he said would be his final term.
