Kelli Cole-Wagner and I at the Athena Awards.
The Medina County Women’s Journal editor attended an Athena Awards event and wanted to bring it to Medina County. What a simple statement! Of course anyone who has ever organized an event knows it was much, much more than this simple statement. Add to that the need to get nominations, set up a screening committee, organize multiple events and make the first awards something that can continue in future years is a very tall order. But Kelli Cole-Wagner and her right hand Tara Haley made it happen. They pulled off a great event with wonderful people and we all had a ball.
Congratulations to the Medina County Women’s Journal, the fabulous nominees (and I was very proud to be one!) and Barb Dzur who I met because someone told me, “you need to know Barb – she does EVERYTHING in this County.”
