Many gardeners are beginning to enjoy the fruits of their labor as beautiful blossoms burst forth in their gardens. The ladies of the Spring Market committee have been hard at work all year planning the 19th Annual Spring Market.

The success of this year’s Market directly impacts the financial stability of our organization in the next League year. As we come together to host this much A Note from A Note from the President anticipated shopping extravaganza for our community, I encourage each of you to find joy in your time of service. Our League and our community will benefit greatly from your efforts. As members of the Junior League of Monroe (JLM), we are always planting seeds and tending our garden. This year we have tackled ambitious projects in an effort to move the JLM forward; such as, reassessing our community impact issue, overhauling our bylaws, policies and procedures; utilizing the technology we have through Digital Cheetah; researching new fundraising opportunities; building Sustainer engagement; and developing a mentoring program for first year actives—what a list of tasks! By the time you read this letter, the end of the League year will be right around the corner. Some of these projects will be checked off our list, while others will continue to the next League year. You can rest assured that the effort you have put forth in planting and nurturing these projects will be evidenced in our future. Your contribution to our organization today will be reflected in the garden of the Junior League of Monroe for decades to come. Throughout this year, we have found encouragement in the JLM’s past accomplishments and have renewed our commitment to the JLM’s future.

Competitive. Connected. The former Guide Plant is conveniently located on Interstate 20 and Millhaven Road in Monroe with direct access to an interstate on-ramp. The 425,146 square foot plant situated on 182.2 acres was a former automotive headlamp manufacturing and distribution center for General Motors which has been closed for many years. The property has access to multiple rail spurs, and its ceiling height ranges from 21 to 70 feet. There is 70’ clearance in the 22,400 SF high bay area (80’ x 280’). Since the plant has been shuttered for many years, the private owners of this facility are motivated to sell, which would allow you more square footage for your investment. Detailed information about the property is available in the property section of this proposal. This facility is located along Interstate 20 in the Monroe MSA, which is the seventh largest metropolitan statistical area in Louisiana. Monroe has an estimated 2014 population of 252,828 with a median age of 34.4. The four parish area around Monroe has a civilian workforce of 110,159 persons.
