Leadership Chattanooga

I have been accepted as a member of the 2007-08 class of Leadership Chattanooga!

Entering into its 23rd year, the program is a 10-month leadership development program that identifies people in early- or mid-career, familiarizes them with community issues and services and develops their leadership skills to prepare them for prominent business, cultural and political roles.

Some 750 people have graduated from Leadership Chattanooga since it was established by the Chattanooga Chamber Foundation in 1984.

Needless to say, I am very excited about this opportunity.

John Legend

Stacy and I went to Nashville on Monday to see John Legend at The Ryman Auditorium. We had great seats directly beside the stage. This being the third time we have seen him (Birmingham and Atlanta were the other two), he put on a great show that included several remixed versions of his hits, as well as a Beatles' tune, "I want you," from Abbey Road.
