New Bremen Mayor Jeff Pape addresses the crowd attending Saturday morning's dedication of the lockkeeper's house which will serve as the Miami and Erie Canal Visitor's Center. Local philanthropist Diane Komminsk was the owner of the key that opened the door. Komminsk, who donated the $1,000 prize back to the New Bremen Historic Association, purchased nearly 400 keys not originally sold during the fund-raiser. Thirty other keyholders took home consolation prizes.
