The mission of this committee is to select a non-active member to receive the award for Outstanding Service to the Division each year. The award is presented at the Spring National ACS meeting. Our meetings are by email messages to vote on received nominations.
Since we last met, the committee received only one nomination for the 2024 award and voted to select Irvin Levy as the awardee for 2024. The award will be presented at the CHED Social Hour at the Spring ACS meeting in New Orleans.
We will again solicit nominations for the 2025 award starting in January 2025. I also plan to ask for funding to support the awardee at the National meeting for at least one day and night.
We will solicit nominations from the division membership. Nominated members who are not selected will have their information held over to be considered again next year.
We received enough to pay for the apple award and engraving the plaque. Last year's winner was not able to attend the meeting so some funds were used to mail the award.
The 2023 winner received the apple and base.
