Geophysics IS Happening! -- See what you're missing in VEGAS...

The successful completion of the SEG Foundation’s US$15 million campaign was cheered at the SEG Foundation luncheon Monday, 10 November as the final amount raised, $17 115 908, flashed on large screens as confetti burst on the room filled with donors. Many were present to celebrate the conclusion of this campaign and to celebrate its enormous success.

The luncheon’s most spectacular moment came at the end when Dick Baile, who has been involved in building the Foundation for over 20 years, and SEG Director, Mary Fleming, along with Geophysics Director Peter Pangman and Bill Barkhouse, put on hard hats, and Baile pulled a lever on what appeared to be a Doodlebugger blaster. With the room full of excited donors, all standing and waiting to know the total amount raised, the blaster boomed, confetti filled the air, and members cheered as the number was revealed.
