Teams: Each team must select one Lead person to register every team member, guests, and other company representatives involved with MSC.

The Lead person should have the following information available when registering team members, guests, and other company representatives: individual names, job titles, email addresses, contact phone numbers, and any other contact information that would be different from the Lead’s. The Lead will need to choose the relationship of the registrant to the team; example, team member, captain, coach, guest, etc.

AMTSociety scholarships

At the December board of directors’ meeting, it was unanimously decided that notification will be sent to each of the winners upon the committee’s selection. That will give the recipient of each award the chance to attend (at their expense) the Cygnus Aviation Expo to be held in Las Vegas where the winners will be formally announced on Friday, Feb. 25, 2011. Contact Joseph C. Hawkins, scholarship chairman or Tom Hendershot for additional information.

AMTSociety would like to thank Michael A. Molzahn for his very gracious donation again this year to the scholarship program. It is very much appreciated, and a deserving individual is going to benefit from your annual donation. This is one way we can give the students today the financial help to keep this great industry trained and well-prepared.
