Community Update

2013 Community Organizations
Honorees

Leadership Troy is proud to announce the 2013
Community Organizations Honorees. 

“Each year the various community organizations that
help make Troy the great place to live, honor an outstanding volunteer.  This year sixteen (16) organizations have
chosen to participate.” Said Jim Cyrulewski, President of Leadership Troy.  “Honorees are recognized for the many
volunteer hours they give to their organization.  This can be for helping with fund raising
events, organizing community improvement projects, planning networking and
social activities, writing newsletters, making meeting arrangements and running
the organization to name just a few of the areas volunteers give their time.”
