(Oldenburg, Ind.) – The Mother Theresa Hackelmeier Leadership Award was established in 2006 and is given to someone whose dedicated service demonstrates outstanding leadership in support of the Academy as first exemplified by our foundress, Mother Theresa Hackelmeier.

This year’s recipient is Mr. Scott Lamping. Over his many years serving as the President of OASIS (OA’s athletic booster organization) he has been the primary driver of moving this group forward in fulfilling its mission to raise the profile of and funds for OA athletics. In his decade of service, OASIS has raised over $170,000. This money funds uniforms, equipment, entrance fees and special projects, such as refinishing the gym floor, purchasing another mini-bus and building the storage/practice barn. OA President Diane Laake states: “Scott’s willingness to seek new initiatives, to inspire others to step up and lean in, and to always go above and beyond has enabled OASIS to be one of the most trusted and respected organizations in the area.  We are so grateful!”

The award was presented at the 29th annual Dinner Auction held at OA on February 24, 2018.
