What a truly historic day!

Today, we celebrated an incredible milestone as Dorothy Shaffer turned 100 years old! Adding to the occasion, Mayor Sharon Tucker officially proclaimed June 13th as Dorothy Shaffer Day in recognition of Dorothy's remarkable contributions to our community.

Happy 100th Birthday, Dorothy, and happy Dorothy Shaffer Day!
