Robert Andrews
CPG-11975 Lockbourne, Ohio
It is with great pleasure that I nomi- nate Robert Andrews CPG-11975 for the 2021 AIPG Section Leadership Award. Robert has been involved with the Ohio Section of AIPG since 2014, and has since proven to be an exceptional leader and organizer. When he was recruited as a Member-At-Large he hit the ground running assisting the Ohio Section Executive Committee with organizing chapter dinner events, and facilitating the use of online registration for sec- tion meetings, and greatly expanding the Section revenue by increasing the number of advertisers. 2014 was also a big year as the Section worked to revise the out-of-date Section bylaws, for which Robert provided valuable input and a fresh perspective.
In 2017, Robert was elected Treasurer and continued in this capacity through 2018. Robert continued his efforts on behalf of the Section by assisting with summer field trips to Ohio Caverns and to the Shale Hollow Nature Preserve,
