(KAIR)--It was a celebration of Atchison success Saturday, as the 2024 Locally Atchison Chamber of Commerce was held that evening at the Atchison Event Center.
Held under the theme "Together We Grow," business success was recognized as part of the evening, with Hilligoss Shoes earning the annual Business of the Year Award.
A highlight of Saturday evening's banquet was honoring the 9th inductee into the Chamber Hall of Fame, with Richard Dickason, the near 30-year president of Exchange Bank, receiving that honor.
He served as Exchange Bank President for 29 years, remaining its CEO until his 2023 retirement from the bank following 50-years of service.
Along with his years of business leadership, Dickason earned his induction through what Locally Atchison Executive Director Jim Rowland calls "his commitment and love for the community of Atchison," shown through his involvement with the Atchison Chamber of Commerce, Atchison Hospital Association, Atchison Family YMCA, Benedictine College, Mount St. Scholastica, Courtney Turner Trust Foundation, Knights of Columbus, American Legion, and Atchison Catholic Elementary School.
