| Rodney Adair Memorial Award |
More than twenty years
ago, Rodney Adair left Oregon Columbia IABC with a legacy of
active membership and dedicated service. After he died tragically
in a car accident, the chapter created the Rodney Adair Memorial
Award in 1980 "for sustained and exceptional service to
the association and for professional advancement." This
is the highest honor our chapter can bestow to a member.
