at the pinnacle for a while

At our meeting on June 28, Bob Miller made a presentation that qualified him for the Competent Communicator award. Since Viki Kinsman has also completed work on a CC and Margaret Farchtchi has already completed work on an ACS award, this is the last piece our club needs to earn President’s Distinguished status. We have completed 9 of the 10 goals in the Distinguished Club Plan. Congratulations, everyone.
