-The Neillsville Chamber of Commerce held their Recognition Banquet on Saturday evening at the Neillsville American Legion.The winner of the Special Business Salute Award was Excel Plumbing, LLC. Deanna Heiman, the award presenter, talked about Excel Plumbing, LLC. being a true family business.
"Our Special Business Salute Award honors a business founded on professionalism, teamwork and community service. In 2015, Wayne and Connie Opelt celebrated Excel Plumbing's 10 year Anniversary. They credit their longevity to the collective efforts of the entire Excel Plumbing crew. With their son and daughter on their staff, this is a true family business. Wayne and Connie, life long Neillsville residents, are well known for their involvement in community organizations and have extended this concept of giving back through their business. Connie is quick to point out, that every Excel Plumbing employee is instrumental in these efforts and their entire team is dedicated to serving the public."
After hearing a little Opelt humor from business owner Wayne Opelt, he thanked the Chamber for the award.
"First of all, I'd like to thank the Neillsville Chamber of Commerce for this award. There are many other businesses out there that deserve it more than I or we do. But I thank you for it and I'm honored. So, anyway, I just want to thank the Chamber for the award and I really appreciate and am honored to get this award."
Coming up on Monday, we'll hear from the winner of the Above and Beyond the Call of Duty Award.
