CHAIRMAN’S AWARD
Presented by Tony Oxendine
Recipients of the Chairman’s Award are chosen by the Chairman of the Board to recognize individuals for outstanding contributions to CALLERLAB. The position of Chairman of the Board of Governors is not an easy on. Nine awards have been presented in the past.
Following is text of Chairman’s Oxendendine’s presentation of the 1995 Chairman’s Award:
The job of Chairman of the Board of Governors requires quite a bit of time involvement in the day-to-day operations of CALLERLAB. Many hours are spent on the phone on the computer keyboard. This job is difficult at best and competent support staff is a must.
Being a novice at this sort of thing, I’ve spent a great deal of time on the phone with the Home Office, trying to learn my job. I must say that I cannot imagine a more professional staff in any organization. If I have a question, all it takes is a phone call, and if the office doesn’t know the answer, it doesn’t take them long to find it.
One of the benefits of being Chairman is that once a year, he or she gets to honor someone with a special award. Therefore, it is my distinct pleasure to present this year’s Chairman’s Award to the CALLERLAB Home Office Staff – George White, Georgi & Dar Johnson, Pat Lovelace, and Mary Schiefert.
