Support, Encourage, Compliment
I have selected Support, Encourage and Compliment as my theme for my year as your 2025-2026 President.
If you look in the dictionary, the word “support” means to agree with, approve of, or encourage someone or something. As members, we support each other through agreement approvement and encouragement.
The word “encourage” means to:
1. Inspire with courage, spirit, or hope; hearten.
2. Make someone more determined, hopeful, or confident.
3. Make something more appealing or more likely to happen.
I see the encouragement of our members by our involvement in so many community activities and increase in membership our members sponsor throughout the year.
The word “compliment” is an expression of esteem, respect, affection, or admiration. It is a comment intended to express praise or admiration of someone. As members, we compliment each other by our involvement and input that has made and still makes our organization the success it has been since 1923.
The Organization has supported, encouraged, and complimented me to do more than I thought I ever could and I am humbled and proud to once again be installed as your president for the 2025-2026 year.
I would encourage you as members to support, encourage, and compliment each other, and let’s increase our membership through those very same words.
Thank you, Debbie Ulmer, 2025-2026 President
The 2025-2026 SBW Officers
