Doug Richards is Presented with the Sharie Lanza Ambassador Award
 
Doug Richards was honored with the Sharie Lanza Award at the TMGA conference on Friday night. It is the highest award that can be presented by TMGA. We are very proud of Doug. He has worked tirelessly for the TMGA and the LGMG since he first became a MG in 2003. Doug is still working to pass along his knowledge to the rest of us as we try to fill his shoes. Congratulations, Doug. You have always been a winner in the LGMG association.
