The Dayton Section of the American Chemical Society
The beginnings of the Dayton Section date back to 1929.  The first official Chair of the Section was Dr. C.A. Thomas, who served from 1931-1932.  Our current membership exceeds 450, covering the counties of Montgomery, Greene, Miami, Clarke, Preble, and Darke.  Section meetings, featuring national and local speakers, are held monthly (except during the summer) and include a local poster session.  In addition, our last meeting of the year honors our 50-year members.
