Congratulations to the 2025 Leadership Dalton-Whitfield class! These motivated individuals completed the 10-month leadership program where they put their passion into action.

In addition, we want to thank all the sponsors who made this program possible including: Dalton Utilities, Mohawk Industries, Engineered Floors, and North Georgia EMC.
