At the dinner meeting at the Crowne Plaza Monroe following the Volkswagen tour, the Material Handling Society will celebrate our 60th Anniversary with a varied program which will include honoring our Past Presidents and making scholarship awards to Rutgers and NJIT. This, the oldest professional organization in New Jersey in this field, began with an organizational meeting held in Public Service Company’s auditorium in Newark, NJ on February 25, 1949.
There were 80 attendees and a Constitution and By-Laws were approved, officers and directors elected. This meeting was followed on March 16th with the first “official” dinner meeting held at the Military Park Hotel in Newark, and the Society had its first plant tour the following November at the Allen B. Dumont Co. (television) plant in East Paterson, NJ.
