The first Tesla Medal for 2007 will be presented at the award ceremony at Curtin University on Friday March 28th 2008. Again we would like to thank Danica Graphics and Design Studio for their ongoing generous support of this award. Thanks also to Jovan Radanovic who has struck another batch of Tesla Medals. These are admired and treasured by all winners. 2. We are hoping to be able to present Curtin University with a Tesla Bust this year and will keep you posted of our progress with fund raising to enable this. Look out too for details of the unveiling ceremony which hopefully will be around the 10th of July 2008. In a separate message you will find our invitation form for sponsors; you may want to make a donation or forward the form to other potential sponsors (each contribution will be much appreciated, whatever the amount is!....and it is tax deductible!). 3. We are working in conjunction with the Science Teachers’ Association of WA to run a Tesla Quiz this year. This will be an online quiz for Year 9 and Year 10 students related to Tesla and physics. It will be run in August and will give you more details later. Thanks to ABB for their generous support of the prize money for this quiz. 4. Finally we would also like to give advanced notice of the ANNUAL TESLA DAY DINNER 2008 that will be held at Hilton Hotel in Perth on Saturday 12th July.
