The 25th annual banquet was held Saturday evening, April 29, at the American Legion building, in Greenwood.

The Greenwood Swing Choir, under the direction of Gordon Wisniewski, entertained with several selections.

Kenneth Steiger was presented with a gold watch in recognition of his 25 years of service with the company. Safe driver awards from Employers Insurance of Wausau were presented to Raymond Johnson, fourteen years; Merle Krehmeyer, seven years; Lawrence Jackson, five years; Larry Rondorf, four years; Tom Behrens, three years; and two years each to Earl Caliebe and James Petkovsek.

The rest of the evening was spent in dancing for the music of “The Jolly Germans.”
