Chapter Competition: South Bay Chapter |
When the Institute established chapters, it assumed an obligation to assist them in meeting their responsibilities to their members. The competition is directed toward stimulating chapters to promote IMA's objectives and provide a broad spectrum of activities and services to members. Planning off each year's chapter activities by officers and directors in the late spring and early summer is thus encouraged. The Chapter Competition, therefore:
- Establishes standards of good performance through constant appraisal of chapter programs and activities.
- Measures actual performance against these standards by awarding credit for activities reported by each chapter. Monthly standings are published which effectively rate every chapter's success in meeting these standards.
- Provides incentives such as trophies, banners, and awards for excellence in planning, performance, and reporting of chapter activities.
The Competition is credited with having fostered a remarkable esprit de corps and kinship between chapters and individual members. It has long been considered a sound and basic influence on the continued growth and advancement of the Institute.
The South Bay Chapter rises to the challenge.
