Jack Hamilton, MMR

There has been a lot of new activity this month but no awards generated. Some of the problem is that I was on travel most of May and, at the National level, a lot of effort is being directed toward the Milwaukee Convention and the NMRA Board of Directors meeting.

For those of you going to Milwaukee, at least one PNR member, Ed Schaenzer, First Division Superintendent, will be honored. Ed will be present his Master Model Railroader plaque at t the awards banquet.

A lot of the hard work that many of you have put in over the past several years is now beginning to be recognized. There are more of your fellow modelers out looking for potential AP candidates. We have several recent additions to the AP fold as a result of simple visits for Golden Spike review or as an outcome of a visit to “come see what I have” or “come on over for an operating session on____”.
