Nominations are being accepted for "Cloy Kuhse Positive Impact Award"

At the Allamakee County Economic Development (ACED) Annual Meeting in 2011, the ACED Board of Directors announced a Business Recognition award. The “Cloy Kuhse Positive Impact Award” was created to honor the late Cloy Kuhse, who was a member of the ACED Board of Directors.
“The Award was created to highlight and recognize a business that is making a positive impact in Allamakee County as well as to honor the memory of Cloy and his vision,” ACED Executive Director Laura Olson stated.
To be eligible, the recipient must be a business located in Allamakee County. “We wanted to leave the criteria general so that we didn’t limit what people interpret as a positive impact,” Olson added.
ACED will take nominations until August 31, and the first recipient will be awarded at the 2012 ACED Annual Meeting in September. The award recipients will receive a plaque and will be listed on the award plaque that is displayed at the ACED office.
To nominate a business, nomination forms can be picked up at the ACED office located at 101 West Main Street in Waukon, and are also available on the ACED website, www.allamakeecounty.com under Economic Development. Contact ACED at 563-568-2624 for more information.
