Green earned this recognition for working to collect the most food donations to benefit The Feeding Team, whose Co-founders Mark & Lisa Hall presented Green with her sash. What a great way to kick off Cicero’s five-day patriotic festival, which continues today and concludes on July 4 with a fireworks show.
