Robert Hupman is known for his support of the Thermal Shelter by designing and installing a shower trailer for use by the homeless. Robert also offers his Hazard Mill Farms party barn as a great venue for non profits to host fundraisers. Rough, Tough, and Scruffy to benefit the Humane Society of Warren County, Oyster Festival to benefit Habitat for Humanity, and Mason Ryder’s Journey with Dyskeratosis Congenita Fundraiser are just a few top events of the year.
Krista Beahm is a rockstar in many ways including food delivery girl! Reaching Out Now food program and Tuesdays Table are two local programs that help keep our community fed. Krista is often running deliveries to families in need. Krista and her hubby also help during the holidays by ringing the Salvation Bell or pick up trash along our town trails keeping our town beautiful.
Kahle Magalis is known not just for being our Chief of Police, but a huge community supporter as well. He was the amazing tetris king during the Christmas in Kentucky toy drive, tag teaming with Robert Hupman once the truck was packed! Kahle rolls up his sleeves and pulls out his paddle to clean up trash on the river and along the shoreline. He takes time to deliver meals for Reaching Out Now and also helped Robert with the shower trailer.
Mari Jo Cochran is our President of the Club this year! She spent many days at the Community Garden last summer growing fresh produce to help our community provide balanced meals to those in need. Mari Jo can be found almost every week ready to deliver meals for Reaching Out Now. At the onset of Covid-19 and the mask wearing frenzy, Mari Jo sewed hundreds of masks for our club members, family, friends, and community members. Her special sewing skill saved the day and helped so many stay safe during a very scary time.
