The Utah Republican Party honored Jeannine Holt at its state convention on June
13 with the State Chairman's award for her years of service to the party. Holt,
a St. George resident, served seven terms as vice-chair of the Washington County
Republican Party until her retirement this year.
Holt has been honored several times for her service in
the community. She was awarded the
Lifetime Achievement Award by the St. George Chamber of Commerce in January
2009. In 2007, after 10 years of service
on the Dixie State College Board of Trustees, the college awarded Holt an
honorary doctorate of humanities.
Holt was previously employed as the local
representative for U.S. Sen. Orrin Hatch. She has also been active in the Chamber of Commerce as a [Dixie] Sunshiner. Despite her retirement from her elected party
position, Holt plans to remain active in the GOP and in community events.
**Congratulations to Jeannine for all of her accomplishments!
