Citizens of the Year 2025 Marcia Kenealy and Marilyn VanZandt

---

 The "Manzer Twins" provided double the fun with their annual "Twins Wide Open Golf Tournament. Their tournament funded multiple projects for the Martinsburg Historical Society.  Each tournament for the last 20 years was full of fun, mischief and always "themed" to add to the enjoyment of the day. Marilyn Manzer VanZandt and Marcia Manzer Kenealy were named "Citizens of the Year" for their dedication to helping the Martinsburg Historical Society (MHS). Their Mother, Dawn, was a charter member of the society (formed 50 years ago) and a long time past president. A representative for State Senator Mark Walczyk presented the sisters with framed citations. August 2025 was the last time for this wonderful tournament. It would be hard to measure the hours of planning and preparation Marcia and Marilyn invested in these tournaments over the years. Through their yearly event the MHS was able to buy and restore a one room schoolhouse located in the Town of Martinsburg, restore multiple abandoned cemeteries and totally restore the 1st Lewis County Clerk's Office owned by the Society. Their mother would be proud and the Society is beyond grateful. Thank you Marilyn and Marcia!
