8 11/26/20157 confection decorative coin  At the Banquet: Peter Wung recommends – a chef designed confection decorative coin for the desserts and put the PELS logo or the PELS 25th anniversary logo right on the coin so that it is prominently displayed for all to see. Pete thinks this is much better than serving sheet cake to everyone.  Lapel-Pin: Initial design was 1.5inch long. It was decided not to pursue this. Instead a 5/8” pin with the PELS logo and “25” superimposed on it would make a nice item that everyone would reuse. The new design is not yet complete.  Necktie design: Had lots of discussion, not finalized
