On Thursday, November 16, in front
of members of the Logan County Board, Dan Fulscher led the
ceremony of delivering this year’s top EMA awards to
recipients. This year's top award, the Larry Shroyer Award,
was presented to Representative Tim Butler and Senator Bill
Brady (represented by his aide Niha Minnaganti) for all the
work they have done for the community. Darwin Shroyer,
nephew of Larry Shroyer for whom the award is named, joined
Fulscher in the presentation.
At the Monday evening meeting of
the Lincoln City Council, Aldermen Rick Hoefle came forward
to hand over a plaque to the city acknowledging the effort
of the city of Lincoln and Mayor Seth Goodman in the July
storms. The award was presented by the Logan County
Emergency Management Agency and ETSB at a recent Logan
County Board Meeting. Hoefle had accepted the award on
behalf of the city. Also receiving awards for that same
storm were the heads of the Lincoln Police, Fire, and Street
Departments.
