Some leaders make headlines. Others make history. 

The Billings Chamber Legacy Award honors individuals whose impact cannot be measured by a single achievement—but by a lifetime of commitment to building a stronger, better, more vibrant Billings. 

This is not just about years of service—it’s about meaningful progress. It’s about someone who has shown up time and time again to lead with purpose, champion economic growth, elevate our quality of life, and ensure the success of not just businesses, but people. 

This year’s recipient is a cornerstone in our community’s story. A leader who has shaped our present and paved the way for our future. Through visionary leadership, relentless dedication, and an unwavering belief in the power of collaboration, they’ve helped transform Billings into a city of opportunity. 

Their influence extends across industries, neighborhoods, and generations. From economic development to civic engagement, they’ve not only participated—they’ve propelled us forward. And their work isn’t stopping now. They are future-focused and vision led, with humble leadership. 

Today it is our honor to recognize a lifetime of impact, leadership, and legacy in naming you, Bill and Marcia Honaker as our 2025 Legacy Award recipient. Congratulations! 

Bill and Marcia Honaker will be honored during the 2025 Billings Chamber of Commerce Annual Business Celebration on September 18, 2025 from 3:30 – to 6 p.m. at the Billings Hotel and Convention Center. Tickets for this event can be purchased at BillingsChamber.com.
