Montana Ambassadors – Nominations for Governor’s Awards due October 1st!

Dear Montana Ambassadors –

It is hard to believe but it is already that time of year. In anticipation of the celebration of our 25th Anniversary, the Montana Ambassador Board is planning a very special Annual Conference in February of 2009. As you know, a part of that celebration will be honoring outstanding individuals that have made an impact on business in Montana and within the Montana Ambassador organization. Nominees do not have to be a member of Montana Ambassadors (other than Ambassador of the Year) so please take a few minutes and fill out the attached form. Bill Johnston is the Awards Chair this year and wants to see nominations from all over the state.

Nominations are due by October 1st. Thank you for your participation!
