About the Billie Jean Sommer Award
Established in 1988, the Billie Jean Sommer, Outstanding New Member Award was established to recognize an individual who has been a member of ISM-Houston, Inc. for less than two years and has accepted and retained a committee position for a minimum of 6 months, performing in an exemplary manner. The Billie Jean Sommer Outstanding New Member Award is made in June at a special awards ceremony.
The Outstanding New Member Award honors the memory of Billie Jean Sommer who served as one of the first women presidents of our association during 1990-91. Mrs. Sommer exemplified volunteerism and made significant contributions to the success of our affiliate. She is still remembered fondly by those who knew and served with her.
Again, congratulations to Heather DeBord on her outstanding achievment.
