Commissioners Choice

The Commissioner’s Choice Award is an initiative of Butler County and the Middletown Blues and Bikes. It is unique in Butler County as the winner is determined by an individual with mental retardation and or other developmental disabilities and not by a panel of judges as their choice for excellence.  Its purpose is to publicly identify the interest in the welfare and lives of people with developmental disabilities.   Everyone should have opportunities to participate in community life with fellow citizens and to develop a sense of belonging to the community. This makes the Commissioner’s Choice award the most coveted trophy.
