On Thursday February 22, 2001, Wilson County HFH held their second annual Volunteer Appreciation night, to thank those Churches and groups who sponsored and built 4 houses during the year 2000. The Grand Lodge of Tennessee was recognized that night along with several local Churches and the Tennessee General Assembly. The event was held at Cook's United Methodist Church, located on Highway 70 in Lebanon.

Each group was presented with a framed certificate of appreciation. Accepting the Grand Lodge's certificate was GMWP Director Brother Tom Boduch. Shown in the photo below (from left to right) are Brothers Mike Gabriel (642), Junior Grand Warden Carl Howard (PM & Secretary 098), Don Hover (PM and Secretary 124), Ronnie Greer (098), Brother Tom Boduch (PM 038), Wilson County HFH Executive Director Cyndie Todd, 2000 GMWP Director Brother C. E. Hester (PM 642) and Brother Bob Richie (642).

On January 1, 2001, Wilson County HFH installed new board members and officers. Executive Director Cyndie Todd recognized the retiring board members and officers and presented each of them with a gift. Brother Corky Hester was especially recognized for his dedicated service over the past several years. He has served as board Treasurer, site coordinator and building supervisor. He was credited for making possible much of the phenominal growth that Wilson County HFH has made over the past few years.

Shown in the photo at right (from left to right) are Brother Hester, new president Richard Delaney, and retiring president Reggie Mudd.

New President Delaney then talked about Wilson County HFH's ambitious plans for the future, which include development of a 25 house sub-division, establishing a Re-Store, acquiring an office, and taking on HABITAT's 21st Century Challenge.
