The Starke County Chamber of Commerce has announced the nominees for their 2025 Henry F. Schricker Service Before Self award.
This award, presented annually, celebrates community members who go above and beyond expectations. They offer their time, talents, or resources in order to help improve life in Starke County; not for personal recognition, but out of a genuine care for those around them.
Community members were encouraged to nominate someone they believed exemplifies this spirit of service.
This year’s nominees are:
Erica Hemphill
Mary Perren
Val Williams
Jimmy Howard
The Marquez family
The award will be presented at the Chamber’s annual Schricker Dinner, which celebrates local leaders who embody the motto “Service Before Self.”
