Recently the Louisburg Chamber of Commerce surprised their Citizen of the Year. They gathered outside his house and when he came out to see why the crowd was gathered, Chuck Golba was presented his plaque.

The 75 year old Golba accepted his plaque to applause from Chamber representatives lining his driveway, while family members huddled at the open front door to watch. The award was presented to Golba in recognition of his volunteer work throughout the Community. According to the Miami County Republic, Golba says he was humbled and honored to be named Citizen Of The Year. Golba stripes the soccer fields at Lewis Young Park and works hard to keep the popular walking trail around City Lake in good condition for the entire community and has been known to clear brush and tree limbs from around the lake.

As A Veteran, he helps Vets get the benefits they are entitled to, he travels to other states to help Vets, as well as visiting prisons to help Veterans understand PTSD. Congratulations Chuck!! Well deserved!!
