With Raleigh Boreen hosting the awards luncheon, outgoing program board members were recognized and incoming board members were introduced to the attendees.
Howard Duncan, SCCA VP, Rally/Solo, and Terry Ozment, SCCA VP, Club Racing, came to the stage to present the first set of the day’s awards.
Among the honors was the long-recognized Road Rally award. The Arthur J. Gervais award is presented annually to year’s outstanding National Course Rally, and has been since 1960. The winner is chosen via a vote of the top 20 competitors in each class who have competed in at least four events. Prior to 1989, this award encompassed all National Rallies each year. This year’s Gervais Award was given to the Arizona Border Region’s Desert Sands Rally, chaired and accepted by John Sears.
The day concluded with the Happy Hour Region Leadership Awards. The open reception recognized Region Achievement Awards, the Tom Burke Award for percentage growth in the past year, and the prestigious Region of the Year.
