<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Stanley
S. Hubbard, Chairman and CEO of Hubbard Broadcasting, Inc. shares his
experience and thoughts about his successes and challenges as a pioneering
business and community leader with the Lower St. Croix Valley businesses at the
Business Leader Luncheon on Tuesday, October, 16, 2012 in Lakeland, Minnesota.
The presentation was held at the St. Croix Valley Church and hosted by Yellow
Ribbon Alliance Lower St. Croix Valley. The event was possible through a grant
from the Lower St. Croix Valley Community Foundation.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: black;">“A leader has to have vision, gain the support of
others, set objectives, keep their word, persevere, and have a bit of luck”,
Hubbard said. Throughout the presentation Hubbard had the audience laughing
about the challenging times and tuned in when he shared how business ideas were
brought to fruition. </span></span></div>

Croix Valley communities, the Stillwater VFW Post 323 provided a photo of Mr.
Hubbard as an assistant coach with the Stallion Pee Wee hockey team. Stallion player, Andrew Hine, provided a photo of the team at the
U.S.A. Hockey Hall of Fame, which we had the pleasure to have Hockey Hall of
Fame member, Phil Housley present. As the gifts were presented, in his humble nature, Mr. Hubbard continued
to recognize others and commented that he was just “one of the guys” in the
community.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<br />
Since February 2012, Sail Away Cafe has been donating proceeds from meals sold every Tuesday from 5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. to the Yellow Ribbon Alliance Lower St. Croix Valley (YRALSCV). This past Tuesday, September 11, 2012, Sail Away Cafe donated another large check, which brings to the total to $1,000. The Yellow Ribbon Alliance Lower St. Croix Valley is grateful for the ongoing donation and support, which then allows YRALSCV to support other groups such as A Touch of Home (<a href="http://www.atouchofhome.us/">www.atouchofhome.us</a>) a group that packs boxes every month in Woodbury for deployed service members. We hope you stop in for Tuesdays for the Troops sometime.<br />

"This brigade has the distinction as being the largest deployment of the Minnesota National Guard since World War II and for supporting the final phase of the Iraq War during Operation New Dawn." <br />

That is a lot of soldiers who answered the call to national security. Our Yellow Ribbon Alliance wants to put up flyers, signs and yellow ribbons--so who is up for this call to action to make sure our soldiers know they are welcomed back home and that we appreciate all they do?<br />

<br />I started volunteering with the Yellow Ribbon Alliance Lower St. Croix Valley because my father was a veteran and as a single mother I could related to the stress of having to do it all alone. I wanted to help out others who like my father served to keep peace in the World. I wanted to help their families when they got deployed to another part of the World.<br />
<br />
When I signed up I did not know how this would impact my career nor was that the reason I volunteered. However, this spring the organization I work for decided they wanted to become a Yellow Ribbon Company and they selected me to be on the steering committee because of my experience with my local Yellow Ribbon.<br />
<br />
Both opportunities have provided me with a chance to develop my leadership skills, work with community government, military groups, the media, plan events, help other groups and help the individuals. I am truly grateful for the experience and chance to serve a veteran.<br />
<br />
