25 Yr Service Award
 
Mr. (Gerald) and Mrs. (Christina) Emerson of Chimes, Arkansas have been cooperative observers for the National Weather Service for 25 years. They have measured precipitation daily and mailed their measurements to the National Weather Service at the end of each month. These measurements are sent to the National Climatic Data Center in Asheville, North Carolina and eventually published to become a part of the permanent record of the world's weather.

For their efforts, the Emersons received a 25 Year Length-of-Service Award on June 28, 2007.
