As the time is fast approaching for the selection and announcement of the Achiever Award and Dr. Max Autrey Scholarship recipients, we would like to congratulate the twenty-one young men and women who have been chosen because of their strong commitment to God, community, education and athletics.

Butler County is fortunate to be able to recognize tomorrow's leaders today. These young people are our county's future.

Good luck to each of you and congratulations on all of your accomplishments. We also salute the sponsors and members who have given of their time and money to make this event special, not only for these young men and women but also for the community members who will attend the banquet May 4. We encourage each of you to attend and be a part of the excitement as Jeremiah Castille delivers a wonderful message and as we celebrate the good in the youth of Butler County.
