Today is the first day of winter.
Technically, it’s the darkest day of the year.
However, at COMPASS, it’s just the
opposite. Yesterday, alongside COMPASS Board Chair Mayor Garret Nancolas, I had
the privilege of honoring our 2015 Leadership in Motion award recipients. Presenting
our annual awards is one the brightest spots in the year for me.
Two common threads linked all of this
year’s award winners: persistence and longevity. These were exhibited through projects
that took perseverance and years of hard work, to people who have stood the
test of time and have the accomplishments to show for it, to a local nonprofit receiving
its second Leadership in Motion award for its ongoing service to the community.
These all serve as a reminder that great
things take time, hard work, and patience. As they say, “Rome wasn’t built in a
day.” Neither was the Treasure Valley.
Let these recipients serve as an inspiration
and a beacon of light for you. Learn more about each recipient at http://www.compassidaho.org/comm/awards.htm.
