A public reception to honor Brent and Deb Wilcoxson for their effort to renovate and renew Winona Lake will be Sunday from 2 to 4 p.m. at Westminster Hall on the Grace College campus in Winona Lake.
The reception is open to all, and there will be a brief program at 2:30 p.m.
The Wilcoxsons will be moving this month to Grand Rapids, Mich.
For their civic efforts, Brent Wilcoxson was given the Bill Reneker Memorial Community Service Award by the Town of Winona Lake in 1994, and Debra Wilcoxson earned the same honor in 2007.
In 1994 Winona Restoration Partners LLC, of which Wilcoxson was involved, was formed to communicate the vision and inspire the revitalization of Winona Lake based on historic preservation.
Sunday’s reception is being jointly sponsored by Church of the Good Shepherd and the Winona Lake Grace Brethren Church.
