2011 Clans Person of the Year, Judy McClure Wisehart

Judy McClure Wisehart has been a Clan MacLeod Society member since 1985. As an active member, she was supportive at the games tent and then took on the job of Regional Vice President for the Southwest Region. In addition to her tireless dedication, she brings her strong creative talent to our organization. Her beautifully handmade clothing and embellished items show up in silent auctions, sale tables and as surprise gifts. During the 2006 Parliament at Dunvegan, Scotland, Judy hosted 2 workshops. She hauled boxes of fabric, binders, stuffing, and notions from home for a MacLeod tartan covered scrapbook.

The 2007 AGM was hosted by Judy and her committee in Denver Colorado. Her planning and organization included workshops on heraldry, genealogy, highland dancing among others. The entertainment was delightful and the food wonderful. Judy continues to support Clan MacLeod as a trustee of the Dunvegan Foundation while still being Southwest RVP. She is definitely a deserving recipient of our Clan MacLeod Person of the Year Award!

We congratulate Judy. for her years of service to the Clan MacLeod Society and a job well done.
