The NCCJ embraces the kinds of concerns that we all feel strongly about: economic development, education, housing, health care, helping the community, guidance for our youth, promoting diversity and tolerance. It takes much time and effort to get some things done. We are far ahead of many metropolitan cities in what we have accomplished so far; however, business leadership must continually be revitalized and renewed. I want to thank you all for coming today, sharing your time, energy and sense of commitment and I look forward to working with you on the 1997 Dinner Committee. The planning for the event is well underway and in good order. Now the task of making this year's Dinner a success is up to all of us. We would like to have a record attendance and your support and involvement will help achieve this. The hope for this success now rests in your capable hands. doc: 1:\t32only\cem\nccj.207
