WOMAN the today

The Woman Today was proud to host this year’s Rosie Awards in April to recognize “women as a driving force” in our community. Inside this issue, you’ll find the stories behind these remarkable women who were awarded in six categories: volunteerism, advocacy, leadership, spirit, mentorship and the allencompassing Rosie Award.

We’d like to thank the event’s sponsors, Essentia Health and Minnesota Power Employees Credit Union, and judges: Ali Comnick, Renae Ronquist, Kelly Finnegan, Annie Lepper and Ashley Lindsey. Also, thanks to readers who nominated a woman for the Rosies. You all helped create a positive, fun evening where we could offer support, encouragement and recognition to the great works happening around us every day.
