HOBY Awards!
In June, we successfully completed another year of HOBY. This was the second “official” year running this project as a WSJC project but a 3rd “unofficial” year. In this 3-Day seminar, 102 Ambassadors from the western part of NC learned about their personal leadership skills, how to lead within a group, and how to lead within their communities.
Each year awards are presented at HOBY Training Institute in Houston, Texas. 2011 NC Jaycees President and 2013 National Vice President Troy Powell and I traveled to HOBY TI this year and had the privilege of attending trainings and receiving awards on behalf of our 2012 HOBY NC West team! Awards are given to Leadership Seminar Chairs, Recruitment Directors, and Corporate Board Presidents from all over the country. The following awards were presented:
- Superior Corporate Board President Award: presented to Steve Eller
- Recruitment Director Award: presented to Renee Shipko
- Outstanding Leadership Seminar Chair Award: presented to Carmen Miller
