The Jeannie Award For Distinguished Service

From time to time, the South Bay Bar Association confers its Distinguished Service Award, popularly known as the “Jeannie”, on a member who is deserving of recognition and thanks for providing extraordinary service to the fellow members of the Association. The award is named in honor of its first recipient, Jeannie Rhodes, whose retirement as the Association’s executive director at the end of 1999 brought to a close over twenty-one years of loyal service to the Association.
