“Fulfilling the many jobs and duties that the SMRT undertakes absorbs countless volunteers and hours of time.”

Every year the SMRT proudly honors individuals who have served the society with extraordinary efforts and accomplished outstanding tasks in support of our mission.

Fulfilling the many jobs and duties that the SMRT undertakes absorbs countless volunteers and hours of time. Those individuals contribute enormous amounts of time in service to our society. They get the job done and done well!

I want to recognize and thank the entire Awards committee. Each of you gave much to the process and I truly appreciate each of you. Gratitude is also extended to Jennifer Olson and the Berkley staff; we would not exist without you!
