Skylar has worked as a Lexington Recreation Camp Counselor, Inclusion Specialist and Program Leader as well as a Lexington Little League Softball Umpire. Skylar's teachers at Lexington High School commented "Skylar has figured out who she is as a student and perhaps more importantly, who she is as a person she is outgoing, self-confidant and self-assured". When asked "What Does Community Service Mean to You?" Skylar replied "Community service means I can go to college knowing that I have given back to the toxm that has given me so much. It means that I get the opportunity to be a part of the town magic I was so mesmerized by as a little girl." Skylar has also been an active member of the Lexington Youth Commission for the past four years holding various leadership roles. Most importantly her time, and dedication to the group made a difference in the community service the Lexington Youth Commission does in town. For the highly successful Flamingo Project last year during the pandemic, Skylar single handedly created the entire processing and scheduling of the flamingo displays and was the key volunteer for transporting and completing the flamboyance of flamingos throughout the town for the entire month May. Skylar is a talented student,dedicated volunteer and strong role model with exceptional leadership qualities.For all these reasons and more, it is an honor to present the 2022 Outstanding Youth Award of Lexington to Skylar K. Spencer. Congratulations Skylar! '• ���J �.�-fb JILL I.HAI, AIR JOSEP .PATO � � SUZANNE E. ARRY � D�iLAS U ,E TE �;�":"�"a�wµ�w.,�..�..�.�....� � ���.� � � �� .��"�..�.. MARK D.
