The Civic Hall of Fame is designed to honor exceptional citizens who have made significant, long-term contributions to the overall development of Tuscaloosa County.

The Civic Hall of Fame was born during The Chamber's 100th anniversary year in 2000, and, since its inception, 74 citizens have been honored as members of the Hall of Fame.  The new Civic Hall of Fame monument in Government Plaza was unveiled and dedicated in October of 2011.
