Our many thanks to all of the 2004 sponsors of the A&WMA Annual Conference & Exhibition. Your contributions to the recent international conference also benefited your local Indiana Chapter. We acknowledged your 2004 conference support in our website as also supporting the local chapter.
 
The ACE2004 is now over, but the Indiana Chapter will need corporate sponsorships for the 2005 to support the chapter's scholarship, education outreach, and student chapter development programs. We are developing the criteria and administration for a student scholarship program to support Indiana college or college-bound students in pursuit of environmental careers. We also hope to have a new student chapter at IUPUI organized and recognized at the national level this year.
 
The Chapter's quarterly technical sessions offered for the benefit of its members also require financial support for meeting space and other expenses. These programs are examples of what your corporate sponsorships can achieve within the limits of our Indiana Chapter area. We will be soliciting corporate support soon to participate in 2005 with a $400 sponsorship. "In-kind" contributions are also welcome to help provide services and technical session meeting locations. Look for our letter soon.
 

Thank you in advance for your help,
Steve Dixon, Chapter Chair
