They were Alan Coy, Judy (Rapp) Kochersperger, Leo Anglin, Don Burcher, Darrell Custer, Stanley Price, Stanley Stump, and Gary Hepler. Master of Ceremonies Bill Little then gave recognition to the following previous Milford school teachers present: Coach Bob Bushong, Gwen (Orn) Dewart, Bernice (Hollar) Dwyer, Mildred (Graff) Levy, and Frederick (Fritz) Wolferman.

basis, in an effort to bring additional businesses and tourism dollars to the community. “We’ve got the biggest asset in the state of Indiana and we can’t capitalize on it,” commented Bill Beemer. In a recent survey requesting input on the idea of an executive director, the majority of those completing the survey responded favorably to the idea of an executive director. Following a lengthy discussion on the matter, Chamber President Jim Caskey noted the consensus of chamber members seems to indicate the need to create this position. Caskey issued a challenge to the chamber for the coming year, to come up with funds to hire a fulltime director or a shared position with the town. Speaking on beautification, Beemer said the committee has

Though the application needed specifics with regards to the cost of the project, Beemer noted, "We don’t have a cost developed that we can put out, but we wanted to have our application on file so we sent it in.” He said he will know more about the grant within 30 to 60 days.
