EXPLORER OF THE YEAR

He is present at almost every meeting and event held by Post 247 and is always very involved with whatever the Explorers are doing. Obie is well respected by the Explorers and as a former Explorer himself, sets an example for the Explorers as to what they can achieve.

Allyson Hall was chosen as our Explorer of the Year for her continued dedication to the growth of Post 247. Ally has been serving in the role of Lt. Commander over the program and has implemented a Google classroom to ensure that all explorers have access to all educational materials needed. She is always quick to accomplish assigned tasks and does so very well with minimum guidance. She makes herself available to help her fellow Explorers when needed. She also serves as the Commander of the Post 247 Honor Guard and develops and leads trainings for her team. Some additional tasks include: quarterly educa- tional planning, scenario development, writing the Explorer Spotlight, working to achieve individual Explorer recognition, community service, management of the educational calendar, development of retention quizzes, tracking attendance and ensuring meeting compliance. Ally has dedicated herself to the educational needs of all Explorers and has been pivotal in developing not only her fellow Explorers, but the Post as a whole. Ally demonstrates a strong “lead from the front” attitude and always sets an excellent example for her peers.

CONGRATULATIONS ALLY & OBIE!
