Golden Nugget Award Winners Named
The Amador County Chamber of Commerce has
announced the winners of the 5th Annual Margaret Dalton Golden
Nugget Awards. The award honors celebrates and acknowledges local unsung
heroes; those who contribute their time and efforts to the community and local
causes with little fanfare or recognition. This year’s honorees are Rich
Hoffman and Gloria Stoddard. Rich Hoffman is CEO of Jackson Rancheria Casino
and Hotel – he serves on the Sutter Amador Hospital Board of Trustees and on
the Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors. As the one who holds the purse
strings at the Rancheria, Hoffman works with many local charities. Gloria
Stoddard is the Clerk of the City of Plymouth – she wears many hats in Plymouth
City government and is the “go-to”
person if you need something in Plymouth.
She is active with her church and taught Sunday school for many years. The
Golden Nugget Awards dinner will be held February 8 at the Jackson Rancheria
Casino Conference
Center and tickets are
available from the Chamber of Commerce – 223-0350.
