From doing research to spreading the wonders of physics, local chapters are the heart of SPS activities. Submitting an annual chapter report is the prime opportunity to showcase the activities of your chapter, and preparing the report can play an important role in your chapter activities. How?

• Reflecting on the year’s events and preparing a report is important for the health, success, and growth of your chapter. By looking back on your year, you will remember accomplishments to celebrate and traditions to keep for next year, and may also see areas for improvement.
• Providing up-to-date chapter information ensures that your chapter will receive materials and communication from the SPS National Office next year.
• Showcasing your events and accomplishments enables your chapter to be nationally recognized for its great work! Chapters that submit an annual report by June 15, 2016, will be considered for the SPS Outstanding Chapter Award. Your chapter activities may also be featured in one of the SPS publications or on the SPS website.

For details on submitting an annual report, see www.spsnational.org/resources/chapters/annual-chapter-reports. We look forward to hearing from you!
