Life is a series of changes and challenges
Being a military brat and changing schools every 12-18 months, I learned what it was like to always be the “new kid” . I learned to adapt to change early in life and some people may consider it a strength that I can accept “moving on” as part of life’s journey. But now that I am older, when others in my life move on, I find that I miss their friendship and I find it hard to keep in touch since we all have such busy lives.
This October, the Johnston County Tourism Authority will say farewell to four Board Members who have served 3 to 6 years helping the Visitors Bureau promote tourism in the county. I just wanted to utilize this forum to thank them for their years of volunteer service to the Johnston County Visitors Bureau and to say how much I will miss their guidance and support.
Marcia Woodall, of DeWayne’s Home & Garden Showplace has served three years and leaves to tend to the demands of her job as Marketing Director of DeWayne’s. Becky Brannon of the Royal Inn in Selma has served three years and resigns to handle the operation of the hotel. Ruth Woodall, retired owner of American Classic Charters, has completed her term and she now volunteers at Johnston Medical Center. Debbie Elam, Johnston Community College, Country Music Showcase has fulfilled her term representing the Four Oaks Chamber of Commerce.
Each of these board members has brought years of experience, support and passion for the county’s tourism growth and again, you will be missed.
If you feel that volunteering with the Johnston County Tourism Authority is something you might be interested in, please feel free to contact us at 919-989-8687 for more information. Not only do we have board positions open up on occasion, but we are in need of volunteers to work in the office, especially with database management.
