Crystal Lee has a great article in the Democrat today about the Community Service Awards banquet on Thursday. Read it here.
We had a great turnout for the event with Assemblywoman Wolk, the entire City Council. many past award winners, and many department heads from the city.
All of the award recipients were very deserving this year. I nominated Neal Peart and was grateful to have the opportunity to participate with Skip Davies in presenting the award to him. Neal Peart will always be someone that I respect and admire.
Jim Lingberg is someone that is part of my childhood. They still live on Wendell Place -- right where I grew up. It was great to see his whole family there. His contribution to the Masons and Scouts has made Woodland a better place.
I don't know Short Parker well but certainly recognize the contribution he has made to the community with his church and youth sports.
I love this event. It really does give some attention to some people in our community that deserve it.
Note: Dotty wrote the nomination this year for Neal. She deserves much of the credit for making the case for him. I wrote it last year and he didn't get it. |
