Belinda Urquiza Recieves William B. Mayre

At the 2018 ASM Fall Meeting Belinda Urquiza was presented with the William B. Mayre Award for her outstanding contributions to Maryland archaeology.

I'm not able to name all the things Belinda has done, but here are a couple.  Belinda Urquiza is an avocational archeologist and has been active in Maryland archaeology for over eighteen years (and probably more than that).  For a number of years Belinda was ASM's Membership Secretary.  And for the past several years she has been on the CAT (Certified Archeological Technician Program) Committee and more recently has been the chair of the Committee.      

For activities a little close to home -- Belinda is a member of several ASM chapters and was one of the founding members of the Charles County Chapter.  She was instrumental in CCASM becoming a non-profit, and was CCASM's first secretary.

Congratulations, Belinda.
