The council presented Ward 1 Spirit of St. Charles awards to longtime teacher Doreen Teach, local business owner Brian McNally and youth leader Teagan (absent); speakers praised years of service, community volunteerism and student philanthropy.

The St. Charles City Council presented Spirit of St. Charles awards for Ward 1 to three recipients: retired teacher Doreen Teach, Brian McNally of McNally's Heating and Cooling, and a youth recipient, Teagan, who was absent and is vacationing in Europe. Council members described Teach's 25-year classroom career and ongoing volunteer work, McNally's business awards and community sponsorships, and Teagan's school leadership and student philanthropy.

Accepting the award, Teach thanked the council and said the recognition represented "the opportunity we all have each day to do good in this world for others." McNally and representatives praised small-business contributions to the community; the council noted plans to take a group photo later for the absent youth honoree.
