Contributed Photo Mayors win Celebrity Feud for charity The mayors’ team may have won Celebrity Feud, but the homeless were the real winners with the “Celebrity Feud” charity event raking in $12,000 for Marshall County Home Place. Lee Ward, director at Marshall County Home Place, said the money raised will go to the building fund to pay for the new apartments, which are now under construction. “I want to thank the businesses that sponsored ‘Celebrity Feud’ and the folks that bought tickets,” Ward said. “I hope everyone had a great time helping Home Place raise money to build more transitional housing apartments to help homeless families get back on their feet, providing them with a hand up, not a hand out.” The gameshow-based event was held at the Guntersville Town Hall, and was catered by Gunter’s Landing. One of the members of the winning team, Guntersville Mayor Leigh Dollar, said she thought the food was amazing and possibly the best it’s been yet. Ward said the teams of elected officials, mayors, ministers, chambers, car dealers and medical persons were a big hit with everyone in the packed house. “The ‘celebrities’ that participated in Celebrity Feud did not disappoint,” Ward said. “They and host Tim Hays kept the crowd laughing all night. We appreciate the time they took out of their schedules to help support Home Place.” The winning team of mayors included: Councilman Ben McGowan, who sat in for Albertville Mayor Tracy Honea, Arab Mayor Bob Joslin, Boaz Mayor David Dyar, Douglas Mayor Corey Hill, Grant Mayor Larry Walker and Guntersville Mayor Leigh Dollar. The second-place winners of car dealers included: Randy Baugh from Gilbert and Baugh Ford, Mark Brickey from Sand Mountain Toyota, Taylor Bentley Connor from Howard Bentley Buick GMC, Kerry Mitchell from Chevrolet of Boaz, Denson Honea from Nissan of Albertville and Steven Smith from Alexander Ford. The team of Car Dealers finished in second place in the Celebrity Feud and helped raise $12,000 for Marshall County Home Place.

I would like to address the award that we, at Gilbert & Baugh Ford, were recently given from the Albertville Chamber of Commerce. We are so thankful and grateful for receiving the “Small Business of the Year,” category 51-100 employees, award, but this award is about so much more than Gilbert & Baugh Ford. As the banquet began, I looked around the room at what I would estimate to be about 250 guests, which included business owners, city and state leaders, etc. Years ago, many of those business owners had a dream and, probably, little funding. However, they stepped out, took a chance and built their businesses on honesty, integrity and commitment. Some of these businesses were passed down generationally or sold to family members. No doubt, the original owners laid the groundwork but the second, and even third, generation owners have carried those businesses to the next level of success. Many of these industries, such as the automotive, poultry, food, trucking and construction, – to just name a few – have weathered the storms of economic downturns and, yet, have still come through and are stronger now more than ever. And it was all achieved through dedication and believing in ourselves, and our community’s success. Our city leaders have done a tremendous job at recruiting new businesses to our city and have done, in my opinion, a great job with our financial budgeting. We have seen new industries come to our city, and this has also strengthened our economy. I say all of this to say that it takes all of our businesses, all of our industries and all of our city leaders in order for our dealership to be successful. We have grown, and will continue to grow, because of all of you. We at Gilbert & Baugh Ford applaud all businesses in the City of Albertville, and we are very appreciative of this award.
