YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio - An award that's only been given out twice in its existence was presented Friday evening to two valley couples.

The Millcreek Park Foundation presented Bruce and Nancy Beeghly with the Volney Rogers Legacy Award.

The award was created in 2006 and is reserved for those who show a sincere dedication to the park and its programs.

Last year, the Beeghly's donated six acres of property to the park system.

"It was our home for 17 years and we loved living there. It was like living in the park, but we're happy now that it will be developed into something the entire public can appreciate and enjoy," said Bruce Beeghly.

The Millcreek MetroParks also honored D.D. and Velma Davis. The couple built the park's education and visitor center. They have since passed away.
