A Successful Annual Board of Directors Meeting
Jul 11 2014

 

With 95+ in attendance, the fiscal year 2013/2014 Annual Board of Directors meeting was the largest attended meeting to date.

There are certainly more projects, activities, and opportunities happening with TCEA than has ever been before.

Along with the excitement of new industries coming to the region, and the first annual Leadership Award, there is also some sadness as we say goodbye to three retiring colleagues and friends:
Recognizing County Mayor Linville's eight year's of service on the Board of Directors, pictured l-r: Chairman Randall Hutto, Wilson County Mayor; Sabra Hodge, House Appointee and Mayor of Carthage; Michael Nesbitt, Smith County Mayor;  Secretary/Treasurer, Shelvy Linville, Macon County Mayor; Vice-Chairman Jake West, Trousdale County Mayor; Anthony Holt, Sumner County Executive; and Stephen Chambers, Senate Appointee.
In recognition of Don Rigsby's retirement as Executive Director, as well as honoring his military service, the Board and Staff present him with an eagle flag stand.  Pictured: Charly Lyons, Executive Director; Don Rigsby, Retired.
TVA/Economic Development's Jeff Taylor (also retiring 9/30/14) and Bess Rickman receive the first Annual Leadership Award for their dedication to economic development excellence.
