Frankenmuth Women's Club

Edelweiss Award

Marie Creger
2021 Edelweiss Recipient

Mary Frank
2022 Edelweiss Recipient

Please help the Frankenmuth Women’s Club identify and recognize the outstanding efforts of a woman who has made a significant or ongoing contribution to the Frankenmuth community. She should be distinguished by her contributions within the areas of education, civic development and/or social improvement. Previously submitted nominations may be updated, rather than entirely resubmitted, by contacting a committee member for a copy of the original form. Posthumous recognition will also be considered.

The recipient will be announced in April and formally recognized at the Frankenmuth Women’s Club Meeting in May. At the meeting, a donation of $500 will be presented to the Greater Frankenmuth Area Community Foundation in the recipient’s honor, designated to the cause of her choice. A plaque commemorating the Edelweiss Award Winner is on display at the Wickson Memorial Library.

Questions can be directed to Ruth Wallace, Chairwoman, (704) 408-1505
