"Two CEO classes in one crazy COVID year!  Wow, I have so much respect for my 34 students.  Talk about constant change and adjusting to circumstances, these students were spectacular!  Through it all, we heard from 46 speakers and were still able to tour 21 businesses.  First session students chartered a new course by holding a very successful golf tournament, while the Second Session students succeeded in putting their own spin to Belleville's Got Talent.  What an honor to lead, instruct, and facilitate these 34 students in discovering our local business leaders and community.  A special thank you to the CEO investors, board members, mentors, and my students who made my sixth year as facilitator for two CEO classes so memorable."
