OUR MEMBERS
WOMEN LEADING BY EXAMPLE RECIPIENT
Every month a member is selected by her peers for the Women Leading by Example Award.Â
For the month of July Christy Harrelson selected Dian Denker Patterson. This is what Christy had to say about why she selected Dian…
Dian leads by example not only personally, but professionally! She has acted as a mentor to Christy through the years by getting her and her son involved in archery, 4H programs, and in her business endeavors. Even as a new member, Dian has jumped in and made herself available to the league, no questions asked. She gives nothing short of 120% in all she does. Way to go Dian!
