Rockford Area Business Hall of Fame

Add comment April 15th, 2008

In the last month or so, we have been preparing for April 24th’s Rockford Area Business Hall of Fame honoring Jon Lundin and Dave Rydell. As part of this, we are interviewing many of Rockford’s leaders who have come in contact with these men.

At the same time, we have been going through the judging process of this year’s Rockford in 20 essay contest, where we ask local youth “Where do you see Rockford in 20 years?”

Putting the two together, you can really see where the future leaders of Rockford are coming from. Some of these students are providing some of the most inspiring messages of where they see their hometown in 20 years.

There is no doubt, that many of these will be part of the Hall of Fame in the future.
