Hi, gang! I hope you are all taking good care in this heat. It is bad enough to cause heat exhaustion or a stroke.
I have been working with Paul Verger, associate vice president (AVP) in Mississippi, on an award we will be presenting to members of the district who merit such an accolade. It is called the ACE award (thanks to Paul’s wife, Suellen).
ACE Award
ACE stands for "Acknowledging Contributions of Excellence," and it will be awarded to individuals whom area AVPs nominate. I will review the nominations, along with other key AMA members, and we will proceed from there. Once the award has been granted, the appropriate AVP in the district will personally present the award to the individual.
I believe this award will identify those members who go above and beyond for the club, the sport, and the community. It is a great tool to identify potential leaders whose talents we can utilize for growing the ranks of the AMA.
I urge all of you to continue promoting the hobby; it is you, the AMA member, who leads model aviation!
—Jose
