Volunteer of the Year Awards
This prestigious national award recognizes a USDF member who, through consistent and cumulative volunteer activities, has demonstrated exceptional commitment towards carrying out USDF’s mission. Nominations can be made by any current USDF GM or PM, with a winner being selected by the USDF Executive Board and recognized at the annual convention.
The Award
The recipient will be presented with a perpetual trophy at the Adequan®/USDF Annual Convention, which will be permanently housed in the Roemer Foundation/USDF Hall of Fame, and will also receive a "keeper" trophy. The winner will also receive two complimentary tickets to the Salute Gala & Annual Awards Banquet, a complimentary Adequan®/USDF Annual Convention registration for the year in which the award is received, and a $100 gift certificate to the USDF Store. There will also be a press release, and the winner will be featured in the Yearbook issue of USDF Connection.
