ABILENE–The Texas Midwest Community Network (TMCN) is pleased to announce that Year 7 of its Leadership TMCN Program will begin with its first session on Wednesday, Feb. 19. The Network is excited to welcome back Kevin Tutt and Michael Daggs as facilitators with sessions again being hosted by TMCN Marketing Partner Jacob & Martin here at their Conference Center.
Leadership TMCN was created in response to one of the most common concerns among TMCN member communities – how to engage the younger members of our communities – both students and business owners/leaders. To address this concern and help develop strong local leadership, Leadership TMCN is designed to challenge participants in their current level of commitment and inspire them to maximize their potential impact on the lives of the communities they serve. Students are partnered with a local business leader/owner, in a mentoring role, to develop leadership skills and implement an impactful community project that addresses a specific community need. Each Program project will be recognized at the TMCN Annual Conference in October and participating students will be eligible for scholarships based on the quality and outcome of their specific project.
All TMCN member communities, including Knox City and Munday, are eligible to participate in this program. Students must be enrolled as a Junior at the local high school and be one who exemplifies leadership, character and desire to improve their community. The participation fee is $150 per participant (students and business leader/owner) with sponsorship provided by local businesses, chambers and economic development organizations as the sessions are focused on economic development initiatives.
