Honoring the Givers<br />

continued from page 1<br />

the AGM, the chosen Eric Poliak Award winner<br />

is presented with a beautiful bronze statue,<br />

engraved with their name. Their name is also<br />

engraved on the AmSoc plaque displayed in<br />

our office, and at various events.<br />

Even if someone was nominated and not<br />

chosen as the winner, their name will remain<br />

on the list for future consideration.<br />

We have started this year’s process of selecting<br />

the person who has served our community<br />

above and beyond the call of duty! Send your<br />

nominations, with a short synopsis explaining<br />

what this person has done to deserve the<br />

honor, to Marlene Rubiez at mrubeiz@uol.com.<br />

br. These submissions are kept strictly private,<br />

but must be received before March 1 st !<br />

There are many around us whose dedication to<br />

the community deserves recognition, and the<br />

Eric Poliak Award is given to only one nominee.<br />

Help us today to honor that special person! §<br />
