Member Appreciation Banquet at FVCC



        The Service Learning/Campus Corps office at FVCC hosted a Campus Corps member appreciation banquet on May 7, 2012 in the Arts and Technology building.  The members enjoyed dinner, fellowship, and numerous door prizes.  Dean McGovern welcomed and thanked everyone for their service and recognized Cory Ledbetter, Newman Civic Fellow Award recipient.  George Cowan, our guest speaker and FVCC faculty member, gave an excellent speech on volunteerism and being a hero.  Mark Reasner from the American Red Cross Disaster Action Team gave a short presentation on the need for volunteers.  Members were divided into 2 groups for a Meaning of Service activity with Humanities Montana facilitators.  All members received a thank you gift and an FVCC Campus Corps drawstring bag.  It was a success with 20 members in attendance and 15 guests!

Dean McGovern kicked off the event with an inspirational welcome speech.
