To kick off the summer, Sunrise Corner held a launch for our new marketing plan Friday, April 26.
Those who came out to Zhoda for our public event were treated to a recap of videos from past seasons, hotdogs and refreshments, a fun outdoor scavenger hunt and a summary of the new marketing strategies Sunrise Corner hopes to implement in the coming years.
