The Bentonville/Bella Vista Chamber of Commerce is seeking nominations for the ATHENA Award which will be presented at the 10th Annual Northwest Arkansas Business Women's Conference to an exceptional individual who has achieved excellence in her/his business or profession, has served the community in a meaningful way and has assisted women in their attainment of professional goals and leadership skills.

The ATHENA Award was first presented in 1982 in Lansing, Mich. and has grown to include presentations to more than 5,000 individuals in hundreds of cities in the United States as well as in Canada, China, Russia and the United Kingdom. The award takes the form of a hand-cast bronze sculpture symbolizing the strength, courage and wisdom of the recipient.

The Northwest Arkansas Business Women's Conference believes in the values underlying ATHENA International's philosophy of incorporating the talent and expertise of women into the leadership of our businesses, our communities and our government. The spirit of the ATHENA Award® Program is captured in a quotation from Plato, "What is honored in a country will be cultivated there." By honoring exceptional leaders, others will be encouraged to excel.

The ATHENA Award® Program is nationally underwritten by General Motors and National City Bank. Local sponsorship is provided by George Nunnally Chevrolet.

Nomination will be accepted until Aug. 31. A nomination form may be obtained by contacting the Bentonville/Bella Vista Chamber of Commerce at 479-273-2841 or visiting the Web site at http://www.bbvchamber.com/general.asp?id=255. For more information, please contact Nancy Desler at 479-273-2841 or via email.
