Mark Rippy to Receive Henry F. Schricker Award

The Starke County Chamber of Commerce has announced the recipient of this year’s Henry F. Schricker Award.

Mark Rippy was selected by a group of past Schricker Award winners, as well as select chamber board members. In addition to being a chamber board member himself, Rippy also serves on the boards of the Starke County Historical Society and Community Services of Starke County, among other community activities. The Henry F. Schricker Award recognizes Starke County residents who put “service before self.”

The chamber has also named Affordable Insurance as its 2021 Business of the Year, while the Constellation of Starke Executive Committee and Starke County’s school corporation are getting the 2020 Above & Beyond Award.

The winners will be honored at the Henry F. Schricker Award Dinner on Thursday, November 12.
