Over the past two months, support for the 125th Anniversary of Henderson has been growing through the 125 Club and the Banner Project.
Through the 125 Club residents, friends and supporters of Henderson make a donation of $125 individually to support the activities that are planned for the 2012 events calendar in Henderson. With this membership, they receive a polo shirt available exclusively to 125 Club members, a certificate and recognition at Q125 events. The goal is to have 125 people join the 125 Club. Individuals who are currently members of the 125 Club include:
John Huebert Adeline Huebert Albert Thieszen E James Friesen Joan Friesen Elva Janzen Arlyce Friesen Deb Mierau Norm Yoder Linda Yoder Kurt Goertzen Kathryn Goertzen LaRoy Hiebner Ken Bergen Maxine Bergen Dale Steingard Laura Steingard Steve Michel Shar Michel Jim Ohrt Nora Ohrt Milford Doell James Mestl Gina Mestl Ardean Ott Troy Powers Randy Ratzlaff Shannon Siebert Terry Bergen Karla Bergen Curt Friesen Nancy Friesen Raymond SiebertThrough the Banner Project businesses, families, residents, memorials and friends of Henderson can support the 125th Anniversary of Henderson by providing the funds to purchase a banner with the Q125 logo that will hang in Henderson this year in place of the “Welcome to Henderson” banners. For a one time donation of $56, you will be listed as a banner sponsor and will have the option to keep your banner after 2012. Money is still needed for 22 banners to fully fund this project to have banners on 17th Street, Front Street and Main Street. Current banner sponsors include:
