Gratitude at the Mountain View Banquet

On June 21, 2010, Mountain View YDC held its annual Volunteer Appreciation Banquet.  This year’s theme was an “Attitude of Gratitude”. Our guests of honor were all the volunteers who donate resources and countless hours of service to the students at Mountain View.  Our special musical guest was the choir of Martha Davis Baptist Church of Jefferson City. The distinguished guest speaker was Jefferson County Juvenile Judge Ben Strand, whose message was one of thanks to all of the Mountain View Volunteers who selflessly demonstrate the their volunteer spirit through work with our students.  Culinary Arts teacher Robert Adams and his students amazed us yet again with ambrosial cuisine and desserts.
   
Special thanks and recognition go out to CM 3 Roxanne Bowen, Volunteer Coordinator David Bugg, ASA Kathy Ridenour, Food Service Manager Robert Adams, and CM 3 Don Burnette for their hard work in making this year’s banquet a festive occasion.

Awards were presented to the following volunteers and organizations for outstanding service and contributions to our program:
