Message from the District Manager: At our March District meeting, I announced a 3% membership growth contest (net growth).  This will be measured on July 1, with awards ($50 APICS gift card) to winners.  Note:  1 member is the minimum net increase for smaller chapters.

ALSO - Our webinars will start up again.  Watch for a separate announcement for May webinars for board members, as well as the entire chapter membership.

 

This years deadline has just past for: The Fifth Annual Charles K. “Chuck” Nelson Student Paper Contest

2013 

For many years APICS has sponsored the Fogarty Student Paper Contest through the Education and Research Foundation.  In 2008 the E&R Foundation and APICS discontinued the program. 

The Terra Grande District (Region VI) and the Heartland District (Region V) have worked together to sponsor The Charles K. “Chuck” Nelson Student Paper Contest District competition.  As many of you know, Chuck Nelson was a great leader in APICS and especially in the Terra Grande District prior to his passing away in 2007.  

Attached are the rules, prizes and details of the contestThe deadline for submissions is April 15, 2013.   

Prizes of $400 and $800 will be awarded for first and second place for both Undergraduate and Graduate papers. 

Papers should be submitted to Roger Harris at email rharris@msstech.com no later than April 15, 2013
