On behalf of the entire E-Board of IPMS/USA, we would like to congratulate you and your chapter for being selected as 2008 Chapter of the Year.  It is an honor to give you this award which reflects all that IPMS represents. Your chapter, IPMS/Manila, has gone beyond the norm in representing IPMS and its ideals, which are to promote not only the society but also the plastic hobby in general.  It is chapters like yours that make the hard work of the E-Board all worth while.  Thank you for this. It is an honor you deserve and earned.I am looking forward to meeting you at some future IPMS National Convention.
