Man of Steel
The Board of Directors decided it was way past time to start acknowledging members who do so much for our club. Duke Ching is awarded a "Man of Steel" certificate for his consistent efforts promoting HSGA through his public performances.


Member of the Year!
Akitomo "Tom" Ikehata, HSGA's Japan Coordinator, won the 1997-98 "Member of the Year" award for the many new members he's tirelessly enrolled in Japan, this past year. The Okadas hold Ikehata-san's blue steel engraved plaque and beautiful gold HSGA T-shirt.


Super-Cyberman
Internet Chairman, Doug Smith, and Alan hold up John Ely's special certificate for "SuperCyberman".


"Bar None"
Two veteran volunteers, Donna Miller and Alma Pfeifer, who do everything to keep the Joliet convention running smoothly every year except play steel, were awarded this year's "Bar None" certificates.
