CIVIC SERVICE HONOREES

Since 1969, the Chamber has annually honored a leader of our community for their unselfish commitment to serve our organization and city.

Among the past honorees are two couples, Harvey and Bernice Jones, and Williard and Pat Walker. Five sets of fathers and sons are also among previous honorees: Phil Phillips Sr. and Phil Phillips, Jr., Adrian Luttrell and Mike Luttrell, Don Tyson and John Tyson, Gene George and Gary George, and Don Gibson and Derek Gibson.
