Sixty-Fifth Edition, May 22, 2016

Featured Volunteer: Kyle Niemann (First Seminar '12)

While attending Auburn I became friends with Shawn Mills. He eventually met his now wife Hilary. I always heard Hilary talking about HOBY and wearing her HOBY shirts. As I learned more it seemed more and more like something I wanted to get involved in. My first seminar was in 2012 and I remember on the drive home getting hit with an incredible feeling. We refer to this feeling as a “HOBY high”. I didn’t know what to expect my first time around as a facilitator, but all I knew was I wanted to keep coming back. While I never experienced HOBY as an Ambassador I have been lucky enough to keep coming back and watching the Ambassadors grow into the outstanding people they are today. I was also recently added to the Corporate Board as GA HOBY’s secretary and I am thrilled to be more involved with this organization and the direction we are going!
