At this year’s our wine and cheese we celebrated CASC’s 25th anniversary and honoured this year’s recipient of the CASC award of merit – Leslie Brown!!!! Thank you Leslie for all your wonderful work.

Thanks to Jun Zhao for taking pictures!

I snapped this photo of Lou Hammond Ketilson after receiving the 2008 CASC/ASÉC Merit Award — it couldn’t have gone to a more deserving person. I was surprised to hear that Lou is the first woman to receive the award.

Please use this photo in your publications, newsletters, websites, etc to congratulate Lou and to promote CASC (http://www.coopresearch.coop/). Here is a link to the Lou’s photo online: http://photos.bcics.org/main.php?g2_itemId=7566&g2_imageViewsIndex=1
