Dear ASTC members,

Gain field-wide recognition for your institution's innovative programs,
practices, and leadership accomplishments. The six Leading Edge Awards will
be presented at the Annual Conference in Louisville to ASTC members and/or
their employees in recognition of extraordinary accomplishments in Visitor
Experience, Business Practice, and Leadership in the Field that not only
enhance the performance of their own institutions, but also significantly
advance the mission of science-technology centers and museums.

Separate awards will go to large and small institutions and to new staff
members, as well as seasoned staff.  

Deadline is March 17, 2006. 

Please visit www.astc.org/about/awards/leading_edge.htm for details,
nomination forms, and to see who won an "Edgie" last year.
