During the graduation ceremony, participants received congratulatory citations from the Clinton County Commissioners, as well as State Senator Cris Dush and State Representative Stephanie Borowicz. In addition, a plaque representing completion of the program was presented by Mike Flanagan, President and CEO of the Clinton County Economic Partnership.

The annual Wayne D. Briggs Award for 2022 was presented to Megan Dayhoff, who was selected by her classmates as someone who showed the most improvement throughout the program year. The award is given each year in memory of the late Wayne Briggs, a Leadership graduate and long-time community leader.

Selected by the class, Josh Boob served as graduation speaker during the ceremony. He spoke on his journey through the Leadership Clinton County program and all the unique opportunities he experienced over the past nine months.
