CROSSVILLE — The dedicated group of officers, chairs, and those who ‘grease the wheels’ recently honored one of their own. Spearheaded by Linda Poland, First Vice President of the Fairfield Glade Ladies Club, board members selected a ‘Volunteer of the Year.’ It was with great surprise that Marjorie Philippe was called to the podium to receive this recognition at the June 6 meeting. Marjorie, Co Chair of the Publicity Committee and club photographer, is at every event recording the action. She is active on the Travel Committee serving as both photographer and as an escort on many trips. However, her greatest contribution was the creation and maintenance of the FGLC Website (ably assisted by husband Dave to whom we are eternally grateful). After four years as the Webmaster, Marjorie is ‘retiring’ – again! — from that task. She will continue to be everywhere with her camera, co-chair club publicity and it is doubtful that she has taken her last trip with the travel group.
