Posted: Wed, Jan 25, 2017 11:36 AM

The 2017 "Spirit of Luther" award will be given to Luther College Woman's Club.

The Spirit of Luther award recognizes individuals who have provided significant service, sustained over time, to the college. Recipients of this award have demonstrated a personal commitment to the college's mission, quality and character. This is the first time the award has been given to a group.

For more than 60 years, the Luther College Woman's Club has provided treats for Luther students for birthdays and other special occasions. Not only does this service assist parents, but the proceeds are returned to the college in the form of scholarships. To date, the Luther College Woman's Club has given more than $305,000 to support the Luther College Woman's Club Scholarship. Membership in the Woman's Club consists of approximately 400 Decorah-area women.

Woman's Club members will receive the award at Luther College's spring convocation at 9:40 a.m., Thursday, February 2nd in Luther's Center for Faith and Life Main Hall.
