The Annie Oakley Society will honor retail industry leader and philanthropist Sharen Jester Turney at its annual Annie Oakley Society Luncheon.

Courtenay DeHoff will receive the Annie Oakley Society’s Trailblazer Award. She is a popular speaker, television personality and cowgirl. With over fifteen years of experience as a television host, Courtenay advocates for agriculture and has taught tens of thousands in the industry the importance of sharing their story to bridge the disconnect between rural and urban communities.

Turney was born and raised, along with four siblings, on a working farm and cattle ranch in Ardmore, Oklahoma. Her great-great-grandfather was part of the Oklahoma Land Run of 1889. A graduate of the University of Oklahoma, Turney earned a Bachelor of Science in business education. She currently serves on the OU Foundation Board of Trustees and has been recognized with the OU Award of Distinction. She is also an inductee into the OU Hall of Fame for Business Education and the Oklahoma Hall of Fame, the state’s highest honor. Her husband Charles is a native of Duncan, Oklahoma.
