Feature Article - December 4, 2008 Addington Highlands Community Builder Awardby Angela BrightWerner
Lips was somewhat surprised Saturday night at the Addington Highlands
Christmas banquet when he was presented with the Community Builder
Award for 2008. Those who live here and in the surrounding area know
how deserving Mr. Lips is of receiving this distinction, and it is
something that was destined to happen. The Swiss Inn is celebrating
40 years in business, though when Mr. and Mrs. Lips moved into the
area and purchased the restaurant, they surely had no idea how deeply
involved they would become in the community or even how long they
would stay. Mr. Lips commented that at one time he was part of 19
different committees. Mrs. Lips, however, wisely suggested that he
cut back at least somewhat. Congratulations to you, Werner and
Martha, on the recognition of your service and dedication over the
years to
the community and its people.
