Who Impresses You in IPPS?
Bob Geneve (l) receives the 2014 Award of Merit from Paul Cappiello

 

IPPS Eastern Region honors its own and we need you to nominate a member who has impressed you with their contributions to the industry or the Society. The presentation will be made at our Cincinnati conference in September. Not your ordinary award presentation, the audience guesses the winner from gradually revealed personal details (only the cleanest bits). Watch the look on the winner's face as they realize it's him or her. Be part of the fun! Nominate a deserving member - it takes just a minute.  Click HERE for details.
