14 The Oregon Surveyor | Vol. 46, No. 1 2022 Award Winners Recognized By Dan Nelson, PLS. Awards Committee Chair 2023 Annual Conference Awards It’s that time of year when we get to recognize our peers for their extra effort, having gone above and beyond the normal call of duty when representing our profession and organization. Sometimes it’s easy to forget that PLSO is a member-driven organization, but without individuals like the people recognized this year, our association would not be successful. Each position, from Chairman of the Board to our Chapter Secretaries and Committee Members, is an integral part of the running of PLSO. Executive Secretary Aimee McAuliffe cannot do her job properly without the knowledge and valuable experience of the member volunteers. “The mission of PLSO is to unite all land surveyors in Oregon and its role is to support our state’s land surveying community and the public it serves,” McAuliffe says. “The fastest way to get to know your professional community is by being active. Out of the volunteers I regularly work with at PLSO, I can honestly say that all of them bring and receive value from their community. I know I am better for knowing them and appreciate everything they do. The three men honored this year are extremely deserving and I am so happy they have been recognized.” Thank you to everyone who submitted a nomination this year. For those wondering about the process, there is a form in the Members Only section of plso.org. After you log in, go to Members and then Membership Resources. We are happy to take nominations all year, but the deadline is in December, before the conference. You are welcome to contact Awards Committee Chairman Dan Nelson with questions as well. Please join us by thanking these winners for their time and sending congratulations for being honored this year!
