It was a time to thank Barton County employees for their dedication as the County Commission honored several staff members for their longevity. The county employees were recognized for continuous service for five, 10, 15 and 20 years, said Wendy Birzer, county Employee Relations Committee president. As their names were called, they came forward, and shook hands with County Administrator Richard Boeckman, Birzer and the commissioners.
