Golden Trowel Award
Tom Morton of the Central Arizona Society accepting the 2010 Golden Trowel Award
Local Societies need membership in order to host lectures and create other programs and in recent years the AIA has established some incentives to help societies grow. We would like to commend all our society officers for managing their societies so well and for enticing new people to join.
