I won the ICAA Newcomer award

Last week was a busy week. Amber and I took a trip to Ft. Wayne to visit some friends and had a great time. We even “won” their daughter in a bowling match! Shortly after that I went to Maumee Bay State Park for an ICAA conference where I was in charge of A/V for the conference with the help of some great people from Ohio Northern. The conference was great and I presented a session about Technology for traveling professionals. The session went well even if I did have to contend with some other great speakers during the time slot.

Thursday nite, ICAA, the Independent College Advancement Associates, had their 50th anniversary celebration and the annual awards ceremony. At the ceremony I won the ICAA Newcomer Award, which is presented to an individual who has made a significant contribution to their functional area. I was extremely excited to win the award for my work with our database at Bluffton University and my work with young alumni at our institution.

Well, I just wanted to brag a little, tommorow I have to go back to work and get a phonathon pull ready!
