As 2020 arrived, our normal became very different with the pandemic, masks, social distancing but our local Junior Order of United American Mechanics did not want to miss our annual recognition of our Junior of Year. Recognizing that individual who has gone above and beyond what is expected.
The member selected this year joined our Berkeley Springs Council #117 on December 29, 2017 following a family tradition. This Junior immediately became involved by helping with our fundraising events as well as volunteering to serve on several of our Committees. You may have seen her helping at our breakfasts, passing out candy at our annual Halloween Trick or Treat, or even in the Christmas parade. Her insight and ideas have been invaluable in our Council endeavors. A true Junior she attends the annual West Virginia State Sessions and has served on our West Virginia State Junior Order committees. Our choice for this year is a teacher and if you speak to any of her students they will tell you that she truly cares about each of them. They feel she was one of those teachers that you always remember as helping you become what you are today. She has taught for 30 years and during that time has served on committees, worked with the student council and now serves as the English Department Chair. She began her career in Morgan County and currently teaches at Clear Spring Middle School. Our choice also is active in her church and truly follows her beliefs. As a friend, you know you can always count on her to be there when needed. Over the years, she was always active in the local schools attending all the functions supporting her daughter and the other students. We have only touched on her many attributes of this astounding lady who is truly an asset to our organization. It is with great pride that we honor Joan Myers as our 2020 Junior of the Year.
