Awards Committee
By Linda R. Gardner, Esq. NJAWBO-Mercer Awards Committee/New Member Mentoring Chair

At the NJAWBO-Mercer Chapter dinner on April 10, 2003, Lynn McDougall, Esq. was awarded a teal heart. As you may recall, Lynn received a teal heart from the NJAWBO State Board last month for her extensive work in connection with the dispute between NJAWBO and the National Association of Women Business Owners (NAWBO). In presenting the second teal heart, President Lisa Harrah noted that in addition to her work with the NJAWBO State Board, Lynn also provided invaluable advice to the Board of the Mercer Chapter in connection with the NJAWBO/NAWBO dispute. Teal hearts are given throughout the year to members of each Chapter, and of the State Board, who have "gone beyond the call of duty". Nominations for the President's awards closed on May 1, 2003. These awards will be presented at the June 12, 2003 Mercer Chapter dinner meeting.
