Gallery of Ageless Achievers, 2007

39 recipients of the 2007 Gallery of Ageless Achievers Award from ten counties were honored on May 11, 2007 at the Holiday Inn in Moline, Illinois. The evening included a buffet dinner and dancing to the music of the Grotto Dixie Band.

Select a county to see the outstanding senior volunteers previously inducted  into the Gallery of Ageless Achievers from that county.
The volunteers being inducted into the Gallery of Ageless Achievers were chosen because of the help they provide for others and their communities. Awards were presented by Kathryn Wyatt and Larry Moore of the WIAAA Board of Directors. WIAAA Advisory Council, Board and staff always look forward to meeting and congratulating all of the volunteers who promote a positive image of aging and make such a difference in their communities.
