This past weekend was full of great events! I had the wonderful opportunity to attend the Fall Induction and Retreat of Savannah’s Chapter of Top Teens of America (TTA), the youth organization sponsored by the illustrious Top Ladies of Distinction Inc. You will read several blogs about this dynamite group this year; it is one of my favorites J.  On Saturday, the May Street YMCA was full of happy young faces anticipating this great event.

The Savannah Chapter of TTA inducted 11 new teens to go out into the community and serve. Parents and loved ones proudly gathered to witness this auspicious event. Guided by TTA Advisor, Lady Beverly Copeland; Top Ladies of Distinction President, Lady Annette Mitchell; Chapter Organizer, Lady Jacquelyn Stephens ; National TTA Advisor, Lady Carrie Howard, TTA Assistants Ladies Mary Knight, Linda Milner, Natarielle Powell, Carolyn Stanley, Nicole Williams and other Top Ladies in attendance, the previously inducted Teens facilitated the induction and gladly welcomed their new comrades. After the induction, the Ladies and Teens engaged in an informative and engaging retreat. There were games, workshops, and delicious food to celebrate incoming Teens and motivate the current Teens to work even harder in the coming year.
