[April 03, 2013]  The Lincoln/Logan County Chamber of Commerce is planning its annual Office Professionals Luncheon for Thursday, April 25. Each year the chamber celebrates many outstanding individuals in their field along with one exceptional individual who will win the prestigious Office Professional of the Year award. This award will be given to an individual who does outstanding work, is dedicated to his or her job, gives 110 percent, and is always going that extra mile.

Nominations are being accepted for this award until Friday, April 12, and can be made online through the chamber's website, www.lincolnillinois.com.

The April 25 luncheon, catered by Guzzardo's Italian Villa, will be from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. at the Knights of Columbus in Lincoln.

Each year office professionals from Logan County come together at this event to celebrate excellence in the workforce. Many organizations and businesses show their appreciation to their office staff by sending them to the luncheon, recognizing that this is a great break in the day for those who are essentially the backbone of their organization or business.

In additional to having the opportunity to get out of the workplace for an afternoon, win prizes and eat delicious food, guests at this event will have the opportunity to hear from John Blackburn, president of Lincoln College. He is a dynamic, engaging speaker who will use stories of his personal successes to inspire and motive audience members.

The chamber of commerce values office professionals and appreciates the excellence they strive for every day. The chamber encourages businesses to reward their office staff by offering them a timeout in their busy day to come and enjoy the lunch and speaker.

Many local businesses will also be on hand to showcase their expertise, offer services to those attending and provide door prizes. Booths will be open before and after lunch. The chamber offers this opportunity for guests to visit with local businesses and learn more about what they have to offer and how those services can improve their personal and professional lives.
