Brunswick, GA – I had the distinct honor of witnessing a close friend and mentor, Cedric King, receive the 2024 Golden Eagle Award this year, a recognition well deserved. This year's Golden Eagle Dinner was held at Jekyll Island Convention Center by the Coastal Georgia Council of the Boy Scouts of America and featured an appearance and live interview with Ladd McConkey, a wide receiver who played in back-to-back national championships for the University of Georgia (Go Dawgs!). Cedric was honored alongside Dr. Michelle Johnston, former president of the College of Coastal Georgia.

Cedric has been a beacon of leadership and service in our community for years, and seeing him stand on that stage, being acknowledged for his tireless efforts, was a proud moment for my husband Markus and I, and so many others who have been inspired by him.

Hailing from Darien, Georgia, Cedric has always been a visionary—both in business and in life. He’s dedicated his time and talents to initiatives that uplift others and has remained committed to bettering the lives of everyone around him. From his impact with his former years of service at Pinova, the work he does with All the Time Bail Bonds, to his leadership across various local boards such as the Brunswick-Golden Isles Chamber and Southeastern Bank, Cedric is a true force in our community.

During his acceptance speech, Cedric shared the importance of giving back to the community and continuing to work toward creating opportunities for others to thrive. That spirit of giving and leadership is exactly why Cedric was chosen for this honor. The Golden Eagle Award, presented annually, recognizes individuals who embody excellence in leadership and community service. Cedric receiving this award is a reflection of the hard work and dedication he has put into everything he touches, and I couldn’t be prouder to know him and call him a friend.

Mark and I were thrilled to stand beside Cedric at the ceremony; his leadership has shaped so many lives—and we’re honored to celebrate this milestone with him.

For all of us who know him, Cedric King isn’t just a local impact leader or serial entrepreneur—he’s someone who leads with an impeccable balance of heart and mind, and I look forward to seeing the continued influence he will have on our community in the years to come.
