Every year since 1975 the Western Region has recognized a member or an official who epitomized friendship, dedication and integrity. The first award was presented at the US National tournament and is now one of the Western Region’s most prestigious honors. This award was established and is maintained for a deserving person who might otherwise go unnoticed and is presented to honor Rich Slingerland and Wayne Canfield. The 2019 recipient of this award is our friend and tireless worker, Connie Bergmark. Congrats To Connie!
