It was a special opening to last evening's Logan County Board meeting when both Logan County Sheriff's Department Detective John L. Bunner and Logan County Emergency Management Agency Deputy Director Terry L. Storer were honored with the Larry Shroyer Award. Both men were surprised. Bunner thought he was called there to be security for the meeting and Storer to assist in giving the awards.

The award is a highly esteemed, selective recognition given for lifetime professional achievement in the field of law enforcement or emergency services.

Marcia Greenslate and Roy Logan of the Lincoln Park District were given the Special Merit Award for Outstanding Community Volunteer at the Logan County Board meeting Thursday night. The award was presented by Dan Fulscher of the Logan County Emergency Management Agency.

The two are a pair who go above and beyond their jobs at the park district, are commonly seen at every community event and festival, "unselfishly" volunteering their time.

Greenslate started by saying: "When Fulscher first invited us to come, we looked at each other like..." Roy chimed in: "What's that about?" Greenslate continued: "I don't know. What do you think we did?" Logan said his first question was, "We're not in trouble, are we?"
