Policy Around ALL In-Person Programming and Events
While Montgomery County continues to lead the nation in COVID vaccination rates, Leadership Montgomery (LM) remains vigilant with the health and safety of our constituents and partners.
- We will continue to monitor and adhere to all federal, state, and local guidelines around COVID-related policies.
- When we gather for in-person events/programs, LM will continue to encourage social distancing, supporting elbow bumps over handshakes.
- Currently, Montgomery County has been identified as a “substantial” risk area for COVID transmissions (as defined by the CDC). Therefore, we will require masks indoors for all attendees/participants, regardless of vaccination status.
- Some event venues will require the usage of masks while on their premises, regardless of vaccination status. We will follow each venue/business’s policies and notify all event attendees/participants accordingly.
This policy is subject to change as guidelines are updated. Should you have additional questions, please feel free to contact us directly.
Corporate Volunteer Awards Luncheon
Held in late winter/early spring, Leadership Montgomery’s Corporate Volunteer Awards Luncheon, recognizes local businesses in four categories – Emerging/Evolving Volunteer Program, Innovative Volunteer Program, Well Workplace and Partnership of the Year – for their support to the Montgomery County community through employee volunteer engagement. The award winners, chosen by an ad-hoc committee, have demonstrated a true passion for community involvement. Additionally, CVC Award is presented to one business, organization, or individual for outstanding service in Montgomery County.
The LEAD Forum
During this full-day leadership conference, attendees will have the opportunity to LEARN more about the county; ENGAGE with other leaders; AMPLIFY critical skills and DEVELOP the surrounding community. The goal of this forum is to give participants the tools of action needed to better prepare themselves to continue on the path of servant leadership.
