Agenda Item: 4.7 Awards Oversight

Author: Steve Gobby

Date of Meeting: July 23, 2020

Type of Report: For Information Only

Update:

President Odendal / Members of the Executive Board:

This report is further my report of April 29, 2020.

Great news! All awards chairs have reported back and we can proudly proclaim we have harvested
another excellent crop of honorees for 2020. The only exception was the Dreher Award but this is par for
the course: the Dreher does not necessarily have a winner each year.

We are now in the process of preparing for an online awards ceremony which will take place on Monday
August 3 (the same date as if we had been in Chicago) at 4pm ET. All members of the Executive Board
should plan on attending. The event will be held on Zoom. An invitation link will be sent to everyone as
the date approaches.

A huge shout-out to the chairs and the committees who worked diligently over the past months so that
we might honor some hard-working and dedicated individuals.
