It is that time of year when we get together to acknowledge our long time members that have reached certain milestones. The awardees have been members from 25 yrs to 50 years. They all had the chance to receive their awards from the President of the AWS at the Fabtech/ AWS Show in Chicago. Bill Scarince did receive his Life Award there. Now it is the local sections turn to honor these folks.
William Scarince Jr / Gold Member 50 Years
Robert Webb / Life Member 35 Years
John Johnston III / Silver Member 25 Years
David Jordan / Silver Member 25 Years
Along with these awards we will recognize the local members that have shown the dedication to the Society that helps keep our section running. These folks are the behind the scenes force that helps facilitate the plant tours, technical seminars, Behind the Mask contest, golf outing and so forth. We are always looking for new faces and ideas at the Executive Committee level.
Please join us on Thursday January 7th 2010 for dinner, with an Awards Ceremony to follow. We will meet from 5:00 to 5:30 for a social hour. Dinner will start at 5:30 with the ceremony starting at 6:30.
