Through the good works of its members over the past year, the Carolina Community has earned the Excellence award for 2008-2009.

The citation on our certificate will read...

For your efforts and success in obtaining excellent corporate sponsorship and for continuing to serve community members.

The STC Carolina community will be recognized during the Leadership Day event on Leadership Day, Sunday, May 3, at the Summit in Atlanta. Bea Bailey, currently the chapter's Vice President, will receive the certificate and the feedback comments from the CAAEC judge.
