August 19, 2010 - Regular Meetings Resume - Winnie Walsh



What a life!  Winnie Walker was born into a large Catholic family in New York.  Right after high school she took a clerical job on Wall Street then with a publishing firm.  She started college courses which she had to abandon after a year.  Winnie maried and had 5 children, the youngest with Downs Syndrome.  She stayed home for the next 20 years and began to write.  Later she worked as an editor for a trade publication.  That’s when she travelled to Savannah on business and never left.  Winnie had always wanted to complete her college eduation and in 2010 (at 78) she finished her degree at Armstromg Atlantic University - probably their oldest graduate ever.  She is also the author of several books including one about her son with Downs Syndrome and one about Savannah.

February 18, 2010 - Susan Kornegay


Upon graduation from Auburn University with a B.S. degree in Home Economics, Susan taught for 7 years in Dothan, Alabama.  In 1980 she and her husband Gary moved to Dublin, GA where she turned her passion for needlework and instruction into owning a needlework boutique specializing in French hand sewing and quilting.  When her second child was born, Susan decided to get her real estate license and work with her REALTOR husband thinking her time would be more flexible.  In 1995 Susan and Gary sold their company in Dublin and purchased a real estate company in Savannah. 


Susan was the 2008 President of the Savannah Multi-List Corporation and currently serves as a Director for the Savannah Multi-List Corporation.  In 2009, Susan became a charter member of the Savannah Board of Realtors Hall of Fame for her 20 plus years of professional service to local, state and national Boards of REALTORS.


Having been married to the same man for over 36 years and raised 2 children, Susan is quick to say that working smart, not hard, is the key to success and the enjoyment of things in life that are truly important.


March 25, 2010 (Fourth Thursday Due to St. Patrick Day Festivities)  - Rushe Hudzinski-Sero


This program will be a departure from our regular “Life Lessons” as Ms. Rushe will present on a very timely topic.  We wrote our Anticipation Letter in December and perhaps we added more New Year’s resolutions in January.    How well are we sticking to those resolutions?    Ms. Rushe will be addressing that very issue.  Her presentation is entitled “After the Resolution:  Using the Positivity of Risk.”

May 20, 2010 - Kathy Ackerman, Owner of Energy Oasis






















“You’ll probably never walk upright again.” The doctor’s words were chilling and disheartening.  That was the prognosis for the treatment of the large tumor growing on the wall of her abdomen.

 

That was almost 8 years ago.  Today Kathy is a master yoga-pilates instructor, tri-athlete and adventure racer and owner of Energy Oasis, an upscale health club and spa in Richmond Hill.  

 

Hers is a story of triumph and determination that everyone should hear.   She has been featured on Savannah’s ABC affiliate WJCL and FOX affiliate, WTGS, the Savannah Morning News, the Bryan County News, as well as Reflections Magazine, Coastal Family and Bryan and its Coast.
