The Pinckneyville Leadership Program is designed to cultivate and nurture the future leaders of our community -- in business, city government, school board service, hospital administration, library board service, and other civic programs. Our group of 15 students have met with Southern Illinois government and civic leaders, they have attended classes about first responders – the police, fire departments, emergency services; they have attended programs about tourism in our community, including dining, lodging, recreational facilities such as golf courses, hunting preserves, lakes and trails. Next year their curriculum will include running our schools, our health care and social service facilities, local government and small businesses. In May the group will be honored at a special graduation program. Our goal is to make sure future leaders are ready to take Pinckneyville where it needs to go.
There will always be more projects we will want to support. We exist to help others whose organizations are charitable and whose projects will enhance the education, health care and economic stability of Pinckneyville. We have guideline we must follow in selecting projects to support and they can be obtained from our General Manager at pvfuture@gmail.com.
