WKChamber Annual Dininer Featured Pence as Keynote
The Warsaw Kosciusko County Chamber tries to provide a valuable experience for the members at their annual membership event. This year may have outdone all previous years by their ability to secure newly elected Governor Mike Pence as keynote speaker for their 101st Annual Chamber Membership Dinner. Just a week from being sworn in, the Governor highlighted many of the themes of his campaign as well as outlining his upcoming agenda for the State. Governor Pence applauded the prosperity of Kosciusko County and indicated it would serve to inspire the nation and give people hope that free enterprise still works and can work again.
Although his time at the dinner was brief, before his speech, Governor Pence greeted guests dined on a wonderfully prepared plated dinner provided by Mad Anthony Lake City Tap House, and greeted the guests with a hand shake. Governor Pence had to return to Indianapolis immediately following his keynote address.
The Governor’s comments were a true complement to the theme of the evening which is a celebration of Kosciusko County business. Many business awards were presented, including Wal-Mart Supercenter, for BLN Employer of the Year; Miller’s Senior Living Community, for service; Bartel Printing, for general business; and Bishop Farms, for industry. OrthoPediatrics received the Entrepreneur of the Year award.
Individual honors were awarded to Jan Orban of CBRE|Bradley – Warsaw, for Chamber Ambassador of the Year; Monica Wilson of United Way of Kosciusko County, for Young Adult Professional of the Year; and Becky Anglin of the Warsaw Police Department, for Government Excellence.
Man & Woman of the Year were Mary Ettinger and Jerry Clevenger for their enormous contributions to the community.
