LCC Alumni News

Leadership Centre County (LCC) is committed to recruiting a diverse class of prospective community leaders year in and year out. The Recruitment and Selection committee is heavily reliant on you, our alumni to nominate and refer candidates each year. So please take a second and [nominate someone].In an effort to expand LCC's exposure to potential sponsoring organizations we have joined the [Moshannon Valley Economic Development Partnership], the [Bellefonte Intervalley Chamber of Commerce] and the [Center for Business and Industry, Centre County]. We ask you to visit their web sites to learn about special events where YOU can represent LCC on behalf of the recruitment effort. Be sure to wear your LCC name badge (if you have misplaced yours contact Georgia at lcc@leadershipcentrecounty.org and she will order you a new one for just $10). If you need a refresher on our history, mission and vision - it's all here on the WEB page. The Leadership Centre County Board of Directors thanks you in advance for your efforts on our behalf. Now go have fun and say good things about LCC!
