Everyone loves an award and now is the time to take a look around for that special person who volunteers tirelessly in service to the Angeles Chapter Sierra Club through conservation, outings, activism, advocacy and leadership. Let’s celebrate the good works of an outstanding outings leader, an inspiring conservationist, a member with irrepressible, contagious enthusiasm and someone who embodies the ideals of our Chapter and the Sierra Club.
With nearly 40,000 members in a very diverse Chapter, we need to congratulate our individual and collective efforts. Now is your chance to recognize our leaders and volunteers who have given so much of their time and effort to the Sierra Club and the Chapter!
The Chapter Awards Committee is seeking nominations for the Chapter's best candidates.Nominations for awards include lifelong members, newcomers that make a difference and even past awardees.
Any Chapter member or entity management committee can nominate another member for an award, with a few exceptions: Current At-Large Angeles Chapter Executive Committee and Awards Committee members are not eligible; nor are deceased Sierra Club members eligible posthumously. Preference goes to candidates that have received little to no recent recognition.
A list of the awards categories, past awardees, and the nomination form can be found on the Chapter Awards page.
Additional awards information can be found on the Chapter’s history pages.
How do I nominate another member for an award? Review the awards list and other information, and then follow the instructions provided on the Nominations Forms.
Background material on awardees will be included in the Awards Banquet program and in the Southern Sierran, so please include all important information for your awards candidate along with nomination Category. Late applications will be held over for the next year’s awards.
The Awards Committee looks forward to receiving your nominations!
Paul Cooley is chair of the 2014 Angeles Chapter Awards Committee.
