Madison County's Top 25 Leadership Awards: Honoring Local Impact
Mar. 25—A joint effort from Leadership Madison County, Madison Young Professionals, Berea Chamber of Commerce, and Richmond Chamber of Commerce brought some of the county's finest together to recognizing local leadership in Madison County.
The inaugural Top 25 Madison County Leadership Awards included leaders from all across the county such as nonprofit employees, entrepreneurs, government officials, and other types of public servants.
Madison Young Professionals Board of Directors Chair Erin Roth explained that the awards are meant to celebrate the recipients of the Awards while also inspiring others in the community to seek ways to give back and improve the lives of all Madison Countians.
"The great work being done throughout Madison County is worthy of being recognized and we're honored to be part of this special occasion," added Shelley Wolfe, who serves as on the Berea Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors.
According to Colleen Spencer, Richmond Chamber of Commerce President and CEO, "A group of distinguished representatives from Richmond, Berea and Madison County reviewed each nomination thoughtfully to name the inaugural recipients of the Top 25 Madison County Leadership Awards."
The recipients were honored with an engraved plaque and catered dinner at Churchill's in Berea.
