Hello fellow KSCC members.
We need nominations for the following 2012 Killington awards. Send your submissions to sdwarf36@aol.com or to Michele's Facebook(not the mailing list-that gets embarrassing) so the club officers and hired in number crunchers can add up the scores + fire up the abacus to determine who of our hillclimb family is worthy of this years awards.
Vote early + vote often!
Rookie of the Year
Mystery Award
Pushrod of Promise
Walt Rowe Sportsmanship Award
Most Improved Driver
Worker of the Year
Background info:
In general the awards are intended to be given to KSCC members.
However we have more than once given awards to non members. We
don't think this is a bad thing where the person is the obvious
choice but on the other hand these are KSCC awards so we should
favor members.
A description of some of the less obvious the awards below.
The Mystery Award is given for something that is a mystery or
should remain a mystery. Sometimes we give it out to something
that just seems strange.
Pushrod of Promise is given to someone who is relatively new to
the club (but not usually a rookie) and who shows a lot of promise.
Worker of Distinction awards are sometimes given to recognize
exceptional efforts made by some individual or group. It can
also help sort things out when we cannot agree on who gets the
worker of the year because there is more than one person who
deserves recognition.

Proper tire selection== nothing hooks up on moss or wet leaves.
Staying on the racing line==anything paved is considered good.
