Our own Chairman’s Chatter, edited by Charles J. DiComo, PhD, has won a Large Gold Medal in the APS Star Route competition. Recently relaunched, this competition judges the various newsletters and websites of APS Chapters.
Since the mid-1800s, the Star Routes were the most challenging routes in the country to deliver U.S. mail. Congress called for contractors to deliver the mail with “celerity, certainty, and security,” soon replaced with three stars. Our chapters serve and grow the hobby in those same tough terrains with that same mission.
Four times yearly, Charles edits a Chatter containing the activities of the Society. It contains such columns as a letter from the President; various committee reports; members who have won medals at WSP shows; photos taken at recent Society events; etc.
Congratulations, Charles!
