The 2012 Business of Integrity Torch Awards are coming up on November 15.

Mr. Steve Scheibner, an American Airlines pilot bumped from the first flight to hit the Twin Towers on 9/11/01, will share his amazing story of how a last minute scheduling change, just the day before, kept him from this flight. He will also share elements from his "Character Matters" series developed to elevate virtues such as honesty, responsibility and compassion as well as sign copies of his book recounting his 9/11 experience.

RSVPs are required with tickets costing $25 for students, active/retired military, senior citizens and accredited business employees and $35 for the general public. Seating is limited and the deadline to RSVP is November 8th.   You can learn more about the event at www.evansville.bbb.org or call the BBB office to RSVP
