This year offers another not-to-miss-opportunity on Monday evening at the APHA Annual Meeting. The Environment Section’s Annual Awards Ceremony will feature a social hour along with the presentation of our Section’s prestigious awards. Other recognitions will be given that evening as well.

Of note, as we conclude this year’s Calver celebration, the Environment Section’s long-time friend and sponsor, the Foodservice & Packaging Institute, Inc., will be credited for their 35 years of support and dedication to the Calver Award program.
Environment Section Chairperson Nsedu Witherspoon will also be making presentations to other members of the APHA community that evening.
