Stitcher Named DBWA Business Woman of the Year

“Organized Chaos” Featured at February Meeting

by Sheri West Symanski

       The Davie Business Women’s Association recognized Sue Stitcher as its 2005 Business Woman of the Year.  The award is given annually to a DBWA member who has made outstanding contributions in business, in serving the community, and in helping the group’s mission of helping businesswomen of diverse occupations grow personally and professionally through networking, support, and camaraderie.

      Stitcher is a marketing consultant for Forrester Smith Promotional Agency whose clients are primarily in Davie County and northwest North Carolina.  She began attending DBWA in 2004 and was elected secretary in March 2005.  As secretary, Stitcher redesigned the organization’s monthly email newsletter and provided other means of improved communication among members.  She is a member and past secretary of the Blue Ridge Chapter of Trout Unlimited, focusing on stream restoration projects throughout Western North Carolina and on programs teaching youth and children how to fly fish.  Stitcher also volunteers with the Nature Education Center at Tanglewood Park.

      “I don’t feel I have earned this recognition,” said Stitcher.  “Others have been involved in the Davie Businesswomen’s Association much longer than I have.  However, I do appreciate that they would honor me in this way.  It means a great deal to me.”

      Stitcher is excited about how the organization has grown and attained new energy during recent months and would encourage other professional women to visit during an upcoming meeting.

      “DBWA has given me the opportunity to learn about businesses in Davie County and meet wonderful people,” she shares.  “I enjoy the fellowship the group provides and look forward to what we have planned for 2006.”

      All businesswomen in Davie County are welcome to attend the DBWA meeting on February 1 at noon at the Rotary Hut in Mocksville.  The scheduled speaker is Sylvia McClintick of Organized Chaos, who will offer ideas on ways to de-clutter, organize, and simplify all areas of life.  For lunch reservations, contact Bette Hauser at Savory Spoon, 998-3663.  For additional information about DBWA, contact organization president Janel Hensley at 782-2242.
