You Could ... You Should ...
Sally Rudolph honored at History Makers Gala

Lifetime League Member Sally Rudolph was recognized at the 2025 McLean County Museum of History History Makers Gala.

In her speech after receiving the award, Sally said she had been overwhelmed since first learning of the honor. She talked about how someone told her she should join the League of Women Voters of McLean County. And she did which led to many years public service.

She issued a challenge to the audience to think of someone, maybe even yourself, and ask "You could or You Should," and add a few words of encouragement. "You can fill in the rest and see what happens," says Sally. Congratulations!
