The volunteer spirit has played an important part in America’s history from the earliest call for help for the Minutemen, to today’s volunteer firemen. Probably the most famous volunteer effort in recent years was during the flood of 1982 when Fort Wayne earned the title of “the city that saved itself.”
Very rarely do volunteers receive anything for their hard work, except an occasional thank you. But Mina McGunigill is different. She has been selected by the Kosciusko County Chapter of American Association of Retired Persons to receive the first community service award. McGunigill, one of the many volunteers at Kosciusko Community Hospital, has contributed 400 hours of service at the hospital and was nominated for the award by the AARP board.
