Tobin Award<\/h2>\n

There is only one Tobin Award given in each chapter each year. The award is given to the chapter\u2019s most outstanding and dedicated volunteer for their contributions during the year. Our 2014 Tobin Award winner was James Trommatter. Ray Powell, chapter President, presented Jim with the Tobin Award plaque and award. We even managed to surprise Jim with the award.<\/p>\n

Best Chapter Newsletter Award<\/h2>\n

Ricky George accepted the award on behalf of the chapter for the 2014 Best Chapter Newsletter. There are two National awards given for Best Chapter Newsletter. One is for Chapters with 500 members or less and the second is for Chapters with more than 500 members. Even though several members assist with the publication of our monthly newsletter, Ricky George has been Editor-in-Chief of the newsletter so it was more than appropriate that he accept the award.<\/p>\n
