Each year each ESA Branch/Section recognizes the scientists, educators, and students who have distinguished themselves through their contributions to entomology in their Branches through their awards and honors.
Below are questions which will assist Branch/Section leaders with the awards offered by ESA and the Foundation.
As you embark on your leadership year, ESA Headquarters has compiled this evolving resource center. This will familiarize you with the resources available to you from ESA Headquarters to make your leadership year effective, efficient and enjoyable. Acquaint yourself with the contents and refer back to them throughout your administration.

Program Committee, ESA Eastern Branch
1. The Eastern Branch Program Chair is usually appointed by the President-Elect very shortly after his/her election about two years before the meeting takes place. The newly appointed Program Chair thus serves as a member of the current year's Program Committee to observe and participate in program development. The current year's Program Chair should involve the newly appointed Program Chair in all aspects of program development.
Nominations Committee, ESA Eastern Branch
The Nominations Committee must provide names of at least two nominees for the office of President-Elect and elected member of the Nominations Committee annually, and Secretary (1994, 1997, 2000 ...), Representative on the Governing Board (1994, 1997, 2000 ...), and Executive Committee Member-at-Large (1992, 1995, 1999 ...), and Treasurer (1993, 1996, 1999 ...).
Local Arrangements Committee, ESA Eastern Branch
Responsibilities:
1. Work with members of the Eastern Branch Executive, standing, and Ad hoc Committees to ensure that the Annual Meeting is well planned and runs smoothly. Work most closely with the Secretary, Treasurer, and Chairs of the Program Committee and the Registration and Hospitality Committees.
