Woman's History Month Award


Steve Fiore-Rosenfeld District Councilman, Dr. Denise Uettwiller-Geiger Award in Science, and little old, Heidi Younger Award Art


March 25th 2010


Something for the wall.

Last Thursday Evening I was humbled and honored to receive by the Town of Brookhaven a Woman's Recognition Award in the area of Visual & Preforming Arts. Other awardees received awards in areas of Education, Community Service, Volunteer, Government, Business Science, etc. I was humbled to hear their stories and what they have contributed to the community. The only artist, I was deeply honored to be considered. My illustrations decorated the poster and the program, after I spoke the audience made that connection. Afterward many business cards were exchanged. It was a thrilling night and I was extremely grateful.
Thanks friends and family for supporting me.
Cheers!

* Thanks Cheryl for the peeps


All of the Awardees received a pack filled with all of these Awards from nearly every government agency in Brookhaven, I was surprised.


shinny!


Right afterwards


Cookie Dog and Heidi

hey heidi!

me and the dogs (and sissy the cat) were there in spirit! This was Beatrix any time i left the house to go out in the backyard: HOWL BARK BARK BARK HOWL HOWL BARK BARK BARK...repeat that nonstop. i feared the neighbors would call the cops thinking i'm abusing my separation anxiety ridden greyhound...so it looks like i'm a bit house bound until someone realizes i haven't abandoned them!

Like i've said before; you totally Deserve the Woman of the Year award! :) You look stunning as always and i'm in love with the photo of you and the cookster! little baby cookie; sweet and cute as always! :)
