(KNZA)--Three local volunteers were recognized by Hiawatha Parks and Recreation Director Stacy Jasper during this week’s City Commission meeting.
Jasper presented Sam Shamburg, Chris Diller and Megan Simmons with the Hiawatha Parks and Recreation "Volunteers of the Year" award for 2018.
Jasper said the three recipients have each given so much and truly made her job much easier with their acts of volunteering.
Through the course of 2018, Jasper said her department hosted 27 events and programs for the community. She said none of them would have been successful without people stepping up and lending a helping hand.
On the recommendation of City Clerk Tish Sims, the Commission approved the promotion of temporary office assistant Glenda Rieger to part-time office assistant at salary of $11.50 an hour. Rieger has worked for the city since August 22.
The Commission approved the re-appointments of David Middendorf and Richard Jarvis to the Tree Board for terms ending December 31, 2021.
And the Commission approved the re-appointment of Floyd McElwain to the Airport Board for three year term.
