Elder 3 Promotions and a Golden Lightsaber

In addition to the usual SoL awards, I have two major promotions to announce: Atra and Idris are both now Elder 3 after three years of hard work and excellent service as JST/DGM and Voice, respectively. Very few members have ever achieved this milestone in the club's nearly thirty year history, so please congratulate them!

Last and, begrudgingly, not least, Howie is now the fifteenth recipient of the Golden Lightsaber. I'm confident that his seven years as MAA make him by far the longest serving MAA in our history. That he's also the most diligent, consistent, and reliable made this award both inevitable and overdue. Congrats, Howie.
