If you missed the annual GOAL Program held with Columbus Technical College, you missed a good one. We sponsor a portion of the competition where outstanding students in the different programs at the school are identified by the instructors and compete for a local winner. Members of the club have served as judges in the past, and this year was no different. The local winner will progress up the pyramid to the state for competion with other technical school winners. A member of our club (Olice Embry) will assist in judging the state competition.

Three of the candidates gave their 3-minute speeches used in the competition at our regular weekly meeting and the winner was announced. Columbus Tech also used our club meeting as a place to announce the outstanding faculty member for the year.

Student Candidates for the GOAL winner Heather Ellerbee(runner up), William Kes(runner up), Trecia Sutton(Winner) Donna Emmons (Coordinator of GOAL program) and of course President Dianne	Faculty winner Tara Askew(coordinator of Teacher of the Year Award), Susan Hollingsworth(Winner) and Tim Justice(dean who nominated the instructor) and of course, president Dianne (who is a cardboard cutout...see picture to the left!)
