[NJARC] NJARC Tony Flanagan Award

[Mbeeferman at cs.com]

Dear NJARC Member:

I have yet to receive any nominations for the Tony Flanagan Award.  I must 
receive your nomination relatively soon (within the next two weeks) to 
submit selections to our Board and get the plaques made; if not, no award will be 
presented this year.   



Tony Flanagan Award  
       
     As part of the club's 20th anniversary celebration, we will again be 
accepting nominations for the Tony Flanagan Memorial Award.  Tony Flanagan 
was the club's founder and first president and the award was established to 
honor his contributions.  The award is presented for supporting the following:

·     The promotion of the antique radio hobby.
·     The preservation of radio and electronic communication history and 
the history of their associated disciplines through artifacts and 
documentation.
·     The promotion of the public awareness of radio development and 
history through books, articles and exhibitions.

     It is important to note that the primary emphasis of the nomination 
should be based on the above considerations and not necessarily an individual 
"who has done the most for the club."  Previous winners have been John Dilks 
(1999), Ludwell Sibley (2001) and Ray Chase (2009).  Your nomination does 
not have to be very extensive or "flowery," but it should at least summarize 
the relationship between the nominee's credentials and the spirit of the 
award.  To get an idea of what we are looking for, Ludwell Sibley's certificate 
of presentation will be published on the Reflector and the club web site.  
     For presentation purposes, your nomination may be edited.  The final 
selection will be made by a vote of the NJARC board.  Please send your 
nominations to Marv Beeferman at mbeeferman at verizon.net no later than November 
12th.
