FOTOFAX BREVARD PLANT PHOTO PRODUCTS DEPARTMENT VOL. 16, NO. 3 €1P) SPRING, 1983 FOCUS: Good Work For a Good Cause A few weeks ago, l had the oj^rtunity to attend the fifth annual banquet for Junior Achievers in Asheville. On this occasion, high school teenagers from counties in Western North Carolina joined their advisors, parents, and representatives of more than 20 corporate sponsors to participate in special awards for outstanding achievers. These awards were presented to the winners of a speech contest, the salesman of the year, and outstanding JA com panies and officers. Our plant sponsored two JA oonpanies, named BEST and USA. While we did not win any of the top prizes, the BEST conpany was runner up in much of the final competition. Much of the credit for the success of BEST and USA goes to their advisors frcm our plant; Mark Beard, Charlie Poppe, Ken Walend, Jeffrey Baird, Mary Bordonaro, and Kay Stepp. We owe them our appreciation for their interest and dedication. They spent hundreds of hours in the evenings after work, counseling and coaching young people of Henderson and Transylvania County in the fundamentals of our American economic system. The purpose of JA is to give youths the opportunity to learn firsthand how a business operates, to gain an understanding of economics and human relations, and to evaluate various careers. From my observation, these objectives are being met. The enthusiasm of the young people who attended the banquet convinces me that JA is a valuable supplonent to the education of these teenagers, particularly at a time when American economic strength is being challenged by the onslaught of foreign competiticxi. Our community and nation will benefit frcm the experiences of the young people who participated and frcm the leadership of the young professicnals and corporate executives give their time to this wortb^^ile vx^rk. .V CLAUDE YOUNG says that wrecking his car changed his iife.
