[QCWA] QCWA Member honoured by ARRL

[Dave - VE3JX]

Greetings all,

I came across this item in the "Minutes of the 2010 Second Meeting of the ARRL Board of Directors":

"31. On motion of Mr. Sarratt, seconded by Mr. Isely, the following resolution was unanimously adopted with applause: 
Whereas, Norm Lauterette, WA4HYJ, has demonstrated outstanding volunteer public relations success on behalf of Amateur Radio at the local and regional levels; and 
Whereas, his numerous published articles both within and outside of the Amateur Radio community have enhanced Amateur Radio's support; and 
Whereas, he has fostered an environment that significantly increases public awareness of Amateur Radio through the effective use of local political and police relationships; and 
Whereas, his two videos "Citrus Chapter's 40th Anniversary" and "The 30 Years of LMARS" enhanced local clubs in his home area; and 
Whereas, his history of active promotion of Amateur Radio encompasses many years and includes print, audio, video, personal appearances, school presentations, volunteer services, and friendships within the community; 
Now, therefore, the ARRL Board of Directors, at the recommendation of the ARRL Public Relations Committee, awards the 2010 Philip J. McGan Silver Antenna Award to Norm Lauterette, WA4HYJ."

Congratulations Norm!  That first video mentioned is what caught my eye; I'll have to see it sometime!

Cheers,
