Chattahoochee Tech Honors Board Member With 'Golden Eagle' Award

WOODSTOCK, GA — Chattahoochee Technical College honored Board of Directors member Pam Carnes with a Golden Eagle award on Tuesday, May 14 at the Woodstock Campus for her 12 years of dedicated service on the board.

“It has been a wonderful adventure to serve on this board,” Carnes said. “I began serving on the
Appalachian Technical College Board, which then evolved into the Chattahoochee Technical
College Board of Directors after the merger. It has been an honor to serve these past 12 years.”

Chattahoochee Technical College Board of Directors Chairman Mark Haney and Chattahoochee
Technical College President Ron Newcomb presented Carnes with the Golden Eagle award.

“Pam’s passion for technical education and providing a trained workforce made her an ideal
member of our board,” Haney said, who also noted that Carnes served as Board Chairman from
2011 to 2012.

Carnes, of Cherokee County, serves as president and CEO of the Cherokee County Chamber of
Commerce, and recently was elected by the College Delegate Assembly of the Southern
Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC) to serve as a member
of the Board of Trustees.

“We thank Pam for her leadership, dedication and commitment through her service on the
Chattahoochee Technical College Board of Directors,” Newcomb said. “We wish her the very best as she embarks upon her new journey representing the public sector with the SACSCOC Board of Directors.”
