Franklin Area Chamber Accepting Nominations for Annual Awards
FRANKLIN -- The Franklin Area Chamber of Commerce is soliciting nominations for its annual awards. Awards are given at the Chamber's Annual Meeting in June.
The Chamber has given awards since 1957, when Dr. W. H. Siegfried was named Citizen of the Year. Cincinnati Gas and Electric (now Duke Energy) was the first Business of the Year in 1970. Industry of the Year was first given in 1992; the winner was Union Camp.
Three additional awards were instituted in 1992: the Thirkield Award for renovating a commercial property; the Eldridge Award for historical preservation; and the Perry Maxwell Award for promoting a feeling of goodwill throughout the community. The President's award was instituted in 1993.
