Commenting on his award Jason said “I want to thank the entire team, Board, and membership at CMAE for this incredible honor. I have been so blessed to learn and grow from so many great leaders within CMAE, CMAA and around the world. I feel incredibly honored and blessed to have received Honorary Life Membership. Joe Perdue was a great mentor and taught me a great deal about the club industry and education. I hope I make him proud and haven’t done anything to ruin all the great programs he put developed for CMAA. I am so grateful to all those who helped deliver, facilitate, and coordinate programs within Europe, I can assure the CMAE membership we have learned a great deal from all the amazing educators and professionals (I wish I could thank you all through words but will need to do that in-person). I thank all of you for allowing me to grow and learn as an educator and promise to work with Michael McCormack, Toby and the EPC to further progress our educational footprint in Europe and all over the world. Thank you to the entire membership for bestowing this incredible honor on me and I will never forget it or take it lightly as we continue to strive for more education to help club managers learn and grow. Thank you truly and I look forward to many more years working alongside all of you. With tremendous respect and admiration.”
