Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to announce the opening of the Women in Aerospace (WIA) 25th Annual Awards Competition. This program furthers the WIA mission to expand women’s opportunities for leadership and increase their visibility in the aerospace community by spotlighting those who have excelled in their fields over a lifetime or on a project basis. Information on last year’s winners can be found at WIA’s web site.
We hope you will help us continue our tradition of celebrating women’s professional excellence in aerospace by nominating women for the following awards:
* Achievement Award
* Lifetime Achievement Award
* International Achievement Award
* Leadership Award
* Aerospace Educator Award

All awards are equal in stature. You can download and review the nomination package, or view it on the web site at any time. We encourage you to take this opportunity to recognize outstanding women with your colleagues.
Nomination packages must be mailed to WIA, 204 E Street, NE, Washington, DC 20002, with a postmark no later than July 9, 2010.
