Meyer Honored As Citizen Of The Year

Steve Meyer, the Coeur d'Alene Chamber of Commerce's newest Citizen of the Year, said he was surprised when he recently received the honor. "For the last 40 years, my practice has been to stay quiet and work for our customers. I am humbled by the chamber recognition," Meyer told The Press. "Coeur d'Alene has been a great place to work, invest, raise our family and contribute to the community. I feel like I have received more than I have given." The award recognizes an individual's exemplary volunteer efforts, altruistic philosophy and personal service on behalf of the community. In its announcement of Meyer's receipt of the award, the chamber lauded the Hayden Lake resident's "leadership and commitment to technological innovation and education, not only in North Idaho but statewide"/Maureen Dolan, Coeur d'Alene Press.
