2010 Chapter Woman of the Year and FHPW Woman of Excellence
February 17, 2010

We celebrated our 20th anniversary on February 17, 2010 at Sundance Grill II.  We were privileged to have in attendance several of the charter members from the area.

During the evening, the recipients of the esteemed awards of Woman of the Year and Woman of Excellence were announced.


The 2010 Chapter Woman of the Year was awarded to Beth Ostriyznick (above on left), current Vice President of the LCCC of ABWA. Beth is a cornerstone to this chapter and has earned the Woman of the Year award for giving of herself unselfishly not only to this chapter but also to the community. Thank you Beth for all that you have done and congratulations!

The 2010 Woman of Excellence was awarded to Jane Medina (above in middle), current President of the LCCC of ABWA. Jane is also a charter member of the chapter. Jane graciously assumed the Presidential responsibilities when Melanie Brown had to step down when being transferred to China with her family. Jane is leading this chapter superbly and we are very appreciative of her commitment!
