​Marie Land

Nominated by Main Street Manning

Marie Land's determination and tenacity set her apart from other downtown supporters.

She has been a driving force behind downtown revitalization in Manning for many years, serving as chair of Main Street Manning since its inception four years ago. When she is not presiding over a board meeting, she does not mind getting her hands dirty by planting, pruning and decorating downtown.

She is a long-time advocate of historic preservation. She was instrumental in rehabbing a historic livery stable and turning it into the family's law office. Marie has spent countless hours on revitalization efforts not only in downtown but also other places in the community such as Weldon Auditorium, the Breedin Garden Room and the Pocotaligo Trail.

As she travels South Carolina, Marie encourages others to visit historic downtown Manning. She returns with ideas from other communities, always pushing for Manning to be "Matchless for Beauty and Hospitality."
