The Baxley-Appling County Chamber of Commerce’s 67th Annual Meeting will be held on Tuesday, January 27, at 7:00 p.m. at the Baxley Church of God Social Hall. During the meeting the STAR Student/Star Teacher, Excellence in Agriculture and the Citizen of the Year awards will be presented.
The chamber is also excited to announce that Dale Smith Thomas (pictured right) will be the featured speaker. She is the President and Founder of Winners By Choice, Inc. and she is an international motivational speaker and author. Dale’s empowering, enlightening and entertaining message has challenged and inspired hundreds of thousands of people around the world to choose success in all areas of their lives.
In addition to traveling the world as an empowerment speaker, Dale is a frequent guest on radio and television. She has been a featured guest on The Dr. Phil Show, The Big Idea on CNBC, The Travel Channel, CMT, MTV and VH1. She was also featured on a Fox Reality Show.
Dale is a self- described unapologetic optimist and her passion for making a difference is stamped on every page of her life. Pulling from her real life experiences from growing up in North Mississippi, Dale shares “real” life lessons that give you the tools to be your personal best.
Her client list reads like a Who’s Who but her lasting impact is with her audience members. Her “I’ve known you all my life” personality has her audience members walking away with a new belief that they can truly achieve their dreams. As one of her audience members stated, “You’re name should read Dale Smith Thomas, PHD The Hope Doctor.” When asked her definition of HOPE Dale quickly sums up her life and her message. “I believe the true meaning of Hope is Helping Other People Excel and that is my personal goal each time I am privileged to share my message.”
