2009 NAEOP Recognitions

Jackie Evans Distinguished Service Award – Jude Gagnier

The award presented to Jude was the Jackie Evans Distinguished Service Award.  Nominations are only accepted from NAEOP elected board members and voted on in a closed meeting during the January, 2009, board meeting.  Nominees must receive 2/3 support of the elected board for recognition.
 
The guidelines state:  "The Jackie Evans Distinguished Service Award is to recognize individuals who have demonstrated exceptional abilities and leadership performance, advanced and/or enhanced the professional standing of educational office professionals, significantly improved or elevated the standards of any of the programs of the National Association of Educational Office Professionals, and/or demonstrated professionalism, courage, determination, and achievement in the performance of the responsibilities assigned to them by the Association or volunteered by the individual." We are all very proud of Jude and her unmatched dedication not only to her local association, but especially to NYSAEOP and NAEOP.  Congratulations, Jude!                                        

NAEOP Recruiting Award – Connie VanHoesen, 3^rd place

Connie continues to receive a recruitment award at NAEOP each year and we are so proud of her commitment, her dedication, and having her hard work as PSP Liaison acknowledged at the national level.  Congratulations, Connie!

2^nd Place Student Scholarship – Ann “Coco” Price

As some of you may remember, Coco’s mom attended our scholarship luncheon last year at Peek’n Peak.  It was indeed my honor to accept the NAEOP Student Scholarship award for Coco at the NAEOP conference this summer.  Coco is originally from Jamestown, which is very close to where I live, and originally, and first received the CCAEOP, my local association’s, scholarship award.  We all can be very proud of how well this young lady has done.  I would love to accept another student scholarship award in Kansas City next year!

1^st Place Website Award – Rose Bain, Webmaster

You should have heard the screams from not only me, but all the NYSAEOP members in attendance at the NAEOP annual meeting this summer when NYSAEOP was announced as the 1^st place website award winner!  Ok, so we tied with another state for top honors, but man, how excited we were! 

NAEOP Secretary/Treasurer – Cathy Eberle

What an honor to have one of our own members sit on the stage as a National main-line officer!  Cathy was installed as Secretary/Treasurer of NAEOP this summer and I, for one, am so proud of her.  She’s come a long way in our association, from attending her first conference all by herself, being the lone representative from NYC, to becoming a NYSAEOP Region Director, to NAEOP NE Area Director, now NYSAEOP Vice President and NAEOP Secretary/Treasurer.  We’re all so very proud of you, Cathy, and wish you well as you take on this new challenge.   Congratulations!
