The antique oil lanterns in the windows welcomed us and let us know it was worth the drive!
We dined on three kinds of lasagna, and a variety of delicious salads and side dishes, and enjoyed each other’s company prior to the announcement of our volunteer awards.
“SHERRI SMITH DAY!”
Our 2009 Volunteer Recognition Banquet was extra-special as we honored our founder, Dr. Sherri Smith, who has since stepped down as Executive Director, but who remains very much a mentor and supporter of Dress for Success ® River Cities. Sherri’s father, Bob Smith, offered the invocation.
New DFS® River Cities Executive Director, Jessica Graham, who is a talented singer-songwriter, honored Sherri and attendees with a song written about the women who have been helped by Dress for Success ® River Cities.
Huntington Mayor Kim Wolfe read a proclamation thanking Sherri for her service to the women of the region, and declared December 3, 2009 “Sherri Smith Day!”
