Jay and Mary Miracle were presented with the chamber's lifetime achievement award in recognition of their years of volunteer service to the Mountain Home community.
Mayor Rich Sykes presented the chamber's new citizen of the year honor to Brenda Raub and Amber Cobos during Saturday's banquet. Also recognized was Eric Tautfest, who was unable to attend the event. All three were honored for their efforts to lead the Community Canvas of Mountain Home project, which transformed an alleyway in the city's downtown area into individual pieces of art created by local artists.
