Hi, this is Doris Lewis from the Northeastern Section. For many years 50-year members received notification from our administrator that they were being honored and were invited to attend any monthly Section meeting free of charge. Specifically, they were invited to the October Section meeting where the award certificates were presented. Those who did not attend were then sent their certificates in the mail. I noticed that the presentations were no longer being given and asked our admin about this. She said that her understanding was that the meeting presentations were discontinued during Covid, and since then all certificates are being mailed, again with an invitation to any meeting. How does your ACS section honor their 50-year members? More generally, I am seeking ways to involve our senior members. For awhile we have coffee shop meetings, again discontinued during Covid.
