The awards presented were entitled “You Make a Difference Awards” which recognized a handful of employees for service that goes above and beyond that which is generally expected. Receiving the awards were Carol L. Tobin, Voter Registrar; Douglas C. Sexton, Jr., GIS Coordinator; Charles Harper, Sr., Custodian;  Robert F. Santmyers, Scale House Attendant, and Jodi R. Spittler, Human Resources Manager.

Board Chair Linda Glavis stated, “Ms. Tobin has practically lived at the office in this election year, seeing that all election procedures went smoothly.  Mr. Sexton has worked diligently to bring the County’s GIS system up to date.  Mr. Harper is always working behind the scenes to make sure our facilities are kept the best they can be.  Mr. Santmyers has been innovative in keeping the County Scale House operating smoothly.  Jodi Spittler touches the lives daily of every County employee, tirelessly keeping track of all facets of benefits, leave, etc.  These awards are all small tokens of our appreciation for what these outstanding employees do on a daily basis”.

County Administrator Douglas P. Stanley added, “Congratulations to these employees on their recognition.  They truly do make a difference every day in efforts to serve the citizens of Warren County and their co-workers.”  The “You Make a Difference Awards” were first presented in 2013 and have since continued on a yearly basis.  Nominations are accepted from Department Heads and Constitutional Officers, with a committee including previous winners narrowing down the nominees to the three to five finalists.
