Twenty-five members of a six-month program that focuses on leadership development in McDuffie County graduated on Tuesday.
The class comprising “Leadership McDuffie” increased their awareness and understanding in a variety of areas, including governmental organizations, rural and urban development, education and business.
Created in 1989 by the Thomson-McDuffie Chamber of Commerce, Leadership McDuffie affords the opportunity to build leaders in the community and increase citizen involvement.
Senator Sistie Hudson of District 124 expressed pride in the initiative and applauded its longevity. “Give yourselves a hand for 23 years,” she said.
As a member of the House of Representatives, she presented a June 12 resolution recognizing Leadership McDuffie for providing a rigorous and innovative program of training.
