New York Local Section Receives Two Honors

Outstanding Performance by a Local Section in the Very Large Size Category

  The New York Section received the 2008 Outstanding Performance by a Local Section in the Very Large Size Category Award from the National ACS.

The award was presented to Joan Laredo-Liddell on behalf of the local section by Wynne Jones and Katie Hunt.
