FAIRMONT â Two TV stars pitched in Saturday to help raise money for the Marion County Discovery Center.
Once the star of the Animal Planet hit show, âCall of the Wildman,â Ernie Brown Jr. â also known as Turtleman â found himself in East Sideâs Crystalline Event Center on Saturday alongside Ronnie Adams, a star on History Channelâs show âSwamp People.â The two spent the afternoon meeting and greeting fans of all ages. The line snaked to the back of the center. Over 750 tickets were sold to meet Turtleman.
FAIRMONT — Usually, Marion County families have to travel far to enjoy a museum, however, the Marion County Discovery Center is looking to change that.
