Thank you for allowing the Muskingum County Auditor's office to utilize the Welcome Center Heritage Room for the 2018 Revaluation Kick-Off Meeting on March 1, 2016. I was very pleased with the facility as well as the staff's efforts assisting with our needs for this meeting.
We had such a positive experience with you and your facilities.
Thank you so much for your work on our event...I have received very positive feedback and I'm sure we will be using your location again when the opportunity to do so comes up!
