Meet Donnette Hilton
Donnie, as she’s affectionately known, is a valuable member of our TGO Community. You might have been fortunate (or unfortunate) to have met her during her five-year tenure working as a CSA Courtesy Patrol officer, where she earned a reputation for her unwavering commitment to upholding the law. She is responsible for creating the TGO Volunteer of the Year Award and has managed it for over 12 years; and is a former winner of the award in 2020. She has been our official Parliamentarian overseeing our CSA Board Meetings for over a decade... and she’s done all this after she retired! Before TGO, Donnie had an extraordinary career in her home state of Minnesota. Find out more starting on page 22.
