Once again one of our promising, outstanding and
awe-inspiring young Caymanians has been recognised.
Garth Arch won Saturday’s Young Caymanian Leadership Award.
We couldn’t be prouder (the Editor must confess a familial
relationship through marriage) of him.
All of the young Caymanians who were put forth for this
year’s award were more than deserving.
Just to be nominated and recognised is a reward in itself.
Kudos to Dara Flowers Burke, Casandra Morris, Orchid
Morrison and Samantha Widmer for their nominations along with Garth. Each and
every nominee was worthy of the prize.
We’ve listened to and read the input of these worthy young
leaders throughout the process and each had their own unique vision for this
country and its future.
It is our hope that they continue to do good works in the
community and aspire to improve the future of our Islands.
The nomination process of YCLA targets young people who
excel in both the professional and personal arenas of their lives. Through
their many accomplishments, YCLA candidates will have demonstrated their
ability to act as leaders in the workplace and community. They have used their
aptitude and talent to advance their own positions, but also for the greater
good of those around them.
According to the YCLA website, “the chosen YCLA Award
recipient will be a well-rounded individual who has consistently demonstrated a
healthy and positive attitude and has endeavoured to motivate and inspire
younger persons by his or her actions. In essence, the selected winner will
have demonstrated the strength of character and solid moral fibre of a natural
leader.”
All of the nominees do just that. Kudos to Garth for getting
the final nod.
It is our hope that the class of YCLA 2012 will continue to
work amongst themselves and former classmates to make their mark on the Cayman
Islands in business and politics going forward.
These are truly the leaders of the Cayman Islands.
