鈥淪ince she joined the Young Titleholders, Meredith brought with her enthusiasm, energy, and great ideas. She is perhaps more passionate than any of us when it comes to building a warm and welcoming community,鈥� said Mr. Nanasi. Lisa Bridge, CG, of Ben Bridge Jewelers received a special award for reigniting the Young Titleholders. 鈥淟isa helped take our community from an idea to a thriving and growing part of AGS.

The Sallie Morton Award was presented to Phillip Bosen, CG. This award recognizes the contribution of individuals who have gone over and above in their service to the AGS Guilds each year. 鈥淢r. Bosen was charged with Guild communications, creating many meeting notices, and establishing an online ticketing sales tool for the meetings. Without any guidance, he created a process to systematically produce our meeting notices for over 52 Guilds,鈥� said Mr. Altman.
