Testimonial from Past Participant:
“I’m not being hyperbolic when I say that the leadership
course was one of the greatest things I’ve ever done in my life.
Being surrounded by people who want to do better and be better
is an amazing feeling. I want to keep it going!!”
– Justin Huebner, Shoreline Hometown Credit Union
