Charlemagne Award Dinner, a picture perfect night of many surprises, businesses celebrated and one Charlemagne Award winner announced. We would like to thank everyone who attended this year, our sponsors and our volunteers.
The "Legend of the Four Son's of Charlemagne," written by C.V. Amenoff who served as Mayor of St. Charles from 1969 to 1973 has had a long history being associated with the St. Charles Chamber of Commerce's prestigious Charlemagne award. The Charlemagne Award is given to those individuals who have accomplished so much in life; however, have demonstrated what it means to give back to the community.
