(2-26-26) Tonight’s Celina Mercer County Chamber Annual Awards Banquet was held at Romer’s Catering.
Award Winners were announced tonight:
🌟Youth Leadership Award: Lukas LeJeune and Alanna Gray
🌟Emerging Business Leaders: Brooke & Braelen Bader
From the Baders…Tonight we were honored (& surprised!!) with the “Emerging Business Leaders of the Year” award and truthfully, it feels like a reflection of so many people, not just us. 🫶🏼🤍
MADE has always been more than a business. It’s been late nights, big dreams, hard conversations, sacrifices, creative risks, and a whole lot of faith. It’s our family. It’s our community. It’s every single person who has chosen to shop small, collaborate with us, cheer us on, and believe in what we’re building.
We don’t take that lightly.
To our customers, our fellow small business friends, our families, and everyone who has supported us from day one, THANK YOU. You are part of this story and we are so blessed to just do what we love and be loved back
