Lee Hoge Announced Volunteer of the Month

The Greater Sandpoint Chamber of Commerce selected Lee Hoge from Sandpoint Realty as volunteer of the month.

"He is always thinking about what someone needs before he considers his own,” said Chamber board member Marcia Phillips from First American Title Company.

Hoge’s volunteer activities are greatly impressive and demonstrate his commitment to the Greater Sandpoint community. He serves as chairman of the flag committee and chairman and organizer for the 2009 4th of July parade for the Sandpoint Lions Club, an organization which sponsors the Toys for Tots Drive, raises the American flag to honor our country and veterans in surrounding cities, plans the annual Easter egg hunt, and raises money for scholarships. He also wears the hat of President for the local Shriners and co-chairs an annual golf tournament to raise funds for children with medical needs. He is also an active member of the Sandpoint Chapter of the Wishing Star, Chamber Ambassadors, the Elks Club, and serves on the Chamber’s Nonprofit Development Council.

The Chamber is pleased to extend the honor of Volunteer of the Month to Lee Hoge who has made a positive impact on our community and our youth.
