Marion County Bank is proud to announce a $25,000 donation to Pella Historical Museums in support of their “On Track for Success” campaign — a community-driven initiative that will bring a new trolley and trolley station to downtown Pella.

This campaign is a way to tell Pella’s history while creating new experiences for residents and visitors alike. The new station will offer public restrooms, exhibit space, and ticketing for expanded trolley tours throughout the city. It’s a project rooted in history and built for the future.

A Legacy of Support

Pella Historical Museums, Executive Director Jessi Galligan shared her appreciation for the bank’s continued partnership:

“Marion County Bank has been an incredible supporter for Pella Historical Museums & Tulip Time for decades, and we continue to be overwhelmed with gratitude for their contributions to the community. With this major gift, our On Track For Success campaign receives a huge boost – one that will allow us to expand our offerings for visitors and locals alike. Thank you, MCB!” 

A Personal Connection

Bank President Kevin Bolt added:

“We’re honored to contribute to a campaign that will celebrate Pella’s history while bringing something new to the community. We also love supporting organizations our team is involved with — both David and Ryan serve in different areas of the organization. We’re glad to help make this project happen.”
