Leadership Salem Quotes

Here's what past participants have said about Leadership Salem:

“As I look back at last year’s Leadership Salem experience, I had expected to learn a lot about Salem and the community needs that we face, but I did not expect to meet such a great group of friends.  I very much enjoyed the time spent with my classmates. Each program day had great content that was well organized, the highlight for me was definitely the people!.”
Eric Templeton, Amerititle, Class of 2008

“To be honest, I didn’t know what to expect from Leadership Salem, but I have found this experience to be overwhelmingly informative, humbling, and fun!. I have learned what our city has to offer in terms of resources and then what our city is in need of.  I have jumped in and followed my passions and am proud to be a volunteer in our community!  Deanna Gwyn, Gladys Blum Realty Group, Class of 2008.

I feel like I started Leadership Salem with a belt, unaware of the fact it was meant to hold tools.  After going through the program that same belt weighs heavy on my waist with a tool that can be used for virtually any community need.”  Jason Brandt, Salem Area Chamber of Commerce, Class of 2007.
