A Message from NCI President/CEO, Rebecca Zoll

It was terrific seeing so many of you at NCI’s 36th Annual Breakfast; with nearly 600 in attendance, it was a wonderful crowd to honor our leadership, business development, community development, and public service award recipients. Congratulations to those honored this year, your work and dedication is amazing and North County benefits from all you do to help make our community great. This year, you can watch the event online at www.NorthStLouisCounty.com. Big thanks to Randy Gardner from the Gateway Television News Network and The City of Black Jack for all his hard work on this television special.

Special thanks to St. Louis Community College’s Wesley Bell (a past 30 Leader in their Thirties honoree), Ed Hassinger (MoDOT), Dr. Art McCoy (Ferguson-Florissant School District), Dr. Mark Tranel (PPRC), and Betty Van Uum (University of Missouri St. Louis) for participating in this year’s annual report to our members.
