Congratulations to MOS Convention Committee Member Tom Strikwerda for being recognized by the Howard County Bird Club for his work with the MOS website. Tom does so much for MOS, and we appreciate him too!

On behalf of the officers of the Howard County Bird Club, State Director Guy Di Roma, presented MOS Webmaster Tom Strikwerda with a coin of appreciation. Tom created an "In Memory of", "In Honor of," and an "Anonymous" method of donating to the Linganore Creek Fund. His exceptional response and willingness to improve the website have been noticed. Tom, you are appreciated! Thank you!
