The recognition commemorates 25 years of business and community building and was given at a recent meeting of the United New Auburn Association. The association meets monthly at Rolly’s Diner to support the community of New Auburn. The family-owned business has been operated through the years by Ken, Jean and Roland Blais. Roland Blais, who was also honored in the legislative sentiment, passed away in January.
