HANNIBAL â Sign ups are active this week for the Tom and Becky program, as boys and girls enter the first phase of a time honored tradition of being goodwill ambassadors dating back to 1956.
Tom and Becky Coordinator Melissa Cummins said students can sign up at Hannibal Middle School, Holy Family School and St. Johnâs Lutheran School, and any students who are homeschooled can sign up at the Mark Twain Museum offices at 120 N. Main St. Local businesses, community members and visitors to Hannibal are eager to see the five boys and girls who make countless appearances during the year.

Hannibal Chamber of Commerce Executive Director McKenzie Disselhorst announced that the chamber sold more than $100,000 in gift certificates for local businesses in 2020. In a typical year, sales are closer to the $60,000-$70,000 range. “We’ve never been even close to $100,000 before,” she told me.
