In addition, each member is required to partake in 75 hours of community service, which is divided between Habitat for Humanity, youth-oriented projects, the Ann DeBock Leadership Award nomination project, personal hours and an initiative with the City of Myrtle Beach to support downtown redevelopment projects.
“Leadership Grand Strand is honored to welcome this new class of stellar participants. Through educational classes, community service projects and helping others, class members fine-tune their talents in key areas such as teambuilding, listening, problem solving, positivity and empathy. These skillsets are paramount to developing stronger leaders and therefore, stronger communities," said LGS Executive Director Diana Greene.
This year’s LGS program will kick off on Aug. 11 with an orientation and conclude next May with a graduation ceremony.
