The highlight of the evening
Saturday night might have been the variety of past presidents who
made their way to the stage at the American Legion Hall to share a
few memories of the year they served as chamber president.
Those in attendance were Eric Graue, 2012; Donna Boyd,
2011; Deron Powell, 2010; Cindy Stover,
2007; Scott Goodman, 2006; Mark Hughes, 2004; Brian Ash, 2003; Todd Lohman, 2001; Rob Orr, 2000; Mark Kinsel, 1999; Dave Campbell, 1992;
Joseph Mintjal, 1977; and Bill Gossett, 1962
Also present and addressing
the audience was Bobbie Abbott, who served as the executive director
of the chamber from 1998 to 2008.
At the end of the evening a
50-50 was drawn, with the winner getting $175. There was
also a drawing for an iPad, which went to Dolan Dalpoas. Then
the really big prize was a gold and diamond necklace, donated by MKS
Jewelers. In order to have a chance at the necklace,
participants bought tickets for $20. When their numbers were
drawn, they were given a key to the treasure chest so they could try
to open it. The key that unlocked the chest belonged to Donna
Boyd.
