A very nice honor was awarded to CCC and accepted by CCC President, Joanne Truesdell. The recognition came from the by the Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve (http://www.esgr.org/site/), and it’s called the Pro-Patria Award (http://www.esgr.org/site/Programs/ProPatriaAward.aspx)/
“The "Pro Patria Award" is presented annually by each ESGR Committee to the one employer in their state or territory who has provided the most exceptional support of our national defense through leadership practices and personnel policies that support their employees who serve in the National Guard and Reserve.”
There was a wonderful D.O.D. (department of defense) volunteer who commented that CCC’s Army Strong Community Center’s attracted 400 people for the grand opening, and has assisted at least 400 people since that time. There are only 3 other Army Strong Community Centers (all of which are east of the Mississippi), whose grand openings only attracted 50 - 60 people.
