LEADERSHIP CHATTOOGA
Authority Gives SSOO
By BUDDY ROBERTS
Summerville's Develop
ment Authority voted last
week to provide SSOO to the
Leadership Chattooga pro
gram, sponsored by the
Chamber of Commerce. :
The request was submitted
to the Authority by Eddy
Ellenburg, chairman of the
project.
SPLIT VOTE
John Turner, a member of
the panel, moved that the re
quest be approved. Jerry
Money seconded the motion,
which was approved by a 3-1
vote. Fay Hurley opposed the
motion.
Purpose of the funds would
be to help the Leadership Chat
tooga program develop future

result of two Leadership
Forum sessions held this year
in the county.
Rotary District Governor
The initial leadership
“class’ would be composed of
25 members, Ellenburg said.
“We're not looking for
politicians,” Ellenburg said.
“The purpose is to give in
terested ones the opportunity
to tone their skills on communi-
LK leadership. It also enables
them to qualify for an active
role in the future of the com
munity."’
COST
The first class in the pro
gram will run an approximate
cost of $7,500, Ellen?)urg said.
The cost for each enrollee will
be S3OO, although the commit
tee is tryin% to reduce the cost
to around SIOO each. The group
will meet once a month, from
January to June, including a
weekend retreat for members
and their wives at the Univer
sity of Georgia the last week in
January.
Members must attend
every meeting, at which will be
discussed community-related
issues.
At the end of the program,
