Description

Annual event with food, fun and silent auction to honor and pay tribute to exceptional citizens for their work for children within the community. This special event will honor our volunteers of the year for 2020-2023, as well as exceptional citizens for their work with children within our local community by honoring them with the Jack L. Brinkman Child Advocate Award. Those honorees are Ruthie Smith with Community Hospital, and the Special Olympics of Madison County. This award was established by East Central Indiana CASA as a tribute to Honorable Jack L. Brinkman, Madison Superior Court 2, who retired in 2008 after 30 years on the bench. Judge Brinkman was influential in establishing the local Madison County CASA program, which later expanded into neighboring counties, and he has been instrumental in the lives of many Madison County youth. This event will also recognize the Volunteer of the Year.
