Ellaville's Bell is Eagle delegate
By Erin Wright
(From the Feb. 21, 2007 issue)
The Georgia Department of Technical and Adult Education recently held its annual Eagle (Exceptional Adult Georgian in Literacy Education) Leadership
This year, Annie Bell of Ellaville was chosen out of a six-county SDA to represent South Georgia Technical College Adult Education Department as its Eagle delegate. SGTC Adult Education Director Jan Hobgood, Bell, and her instructor Erin Wright, traveled to Atlanta and attended sessions and workshops focused on increasing leadership, communication and life management skills. Activities other than workshops included a tour of CNN in downtown Atlanta, an Eagle Spirit Award Social, and an Awards Luncheon.
“The tour of CNN was really interesting,” Bell said. “To see what all goes on to take the information and turn it into the news programs was fascinating.”
Guest speakers for the Awards Luncheon included: Ms. Carol Lin, CNN contributor and former CNN anchor for the weekend edition of CNN Newsroom, and Dr. Kenneth L. Samuel, president of the DeKalb County NAACP, pastor of Victory for the World Church in Stone Mountain. Dr. Samuel was licensed and ordained under the pastorates of Dr. Joseph Roberts and Dr. Martin Luther King, Sr. He is also the author of Solomon’s Success: Four Essential Keys to Leadership. During the ceremony, each of the delegates was awarded an Eagle Trophy for their exceptional achievements in Adult Education.
