Description
WV Secretary of State Mac Warner honors Centurion Businesses of Monongalia County with the West Virginia Centurion Chamber of Commerce Award.
The West Virginia Centurion Chamber of Commerce Award recognizes businesses that have withstood the test of time in the Mountain State. Centurion members are active business entities that have been in continuous operation for 100 years or more.
"These businesses have withstood generations, challenging economic times, and ever-changing technology," Warner said. "They include banks, newspapers, hospitals, family-owned businesses, and more. These Centurions are anchors and leaders in our communities."
