Shining a spotlight on the exceptional volunteers in Clermont County, the Clermont Chamber of Commerce Foundation has announced the recipients of its 2021 Salute to Leaders Awards.
“Salute to Leaders is an extra special, long-standing tradition of honoring our unsung heroes in Clermont County. Never has there been another time in the event’s history that we have faced challenges, such as COVID-19,” said Park National Bank assistant vice president and event committee member Cyndy Wright Sellers. “Sharing the good news of amazing volunteers gives us a chance to pause and appreciate how blessed we are.”
Since 1994, Salute to Leaders Awards has honored volunteer citizens, groups and leaders for their contributions to the community. Honorees will be recognized July 21 with a dinner and awards ceremony at the Oasis Conference Center in Loveland.
