Today Cary was presented the Circle of Corydon, issued by Gov. Mike Braun and nominated by Indiana Representative Beau Baird. What a special honor this is for him to be acknowledged for his excellence in public service to our state and it was particularly nice to have the presentation during the opening day of the Indiana State Fair.
The Circle of Corydon was created during Gov. Eric Holcomb’s administration to recognize Hoosiers who have made remarkable contributions that better Indiana. Its name honors Corydon, Indiana’s first state capital and the place where delegates drafted Indiana’s first state constitution in 1816.
The Circle of Corydon is unique in that it is jointly issued by the executive and legislative branches. The recognition is signed by both the governor and the state legislator making the nomination. It is given to individuals whose service, leadership, or accomplishments reflect the civic qualities associated with Indiana’s founders.
