The affair, known as the “Potty Party”, honored the company's top producers for the year 1969. The highlight of the evening was the presentation of more than $64,000 in bonuses. The term Potty Party draws its significance from the fact that bonuses were at one time paid in silver dollars and awarded to the company’s leaders in fur-lined pots. Mr. Levernier has been a representative sor 1 Midwestern since August of 1951, and has been one of the company's most consistent personal producers.
