Awards

BTC Service Awards for Outstanding Contributions to the Birmingham Track Club

The Dr. Arthur Black/Rick Melanson Annual Service Award is our oldest award and is annually given to the most outstanding club member over the past year or for continued outstanding leadership and service to the BTC.

The Randy Johnson Annual Service Award is given annually to a '''newer''' member who has demonstrated outstanding leadership and freely given of his or her time in volunteering capacity in ways that help further the mission of the BTC.

The BTC Lifetime Acheivement Award is an award that presented to members of the BTC that have served the club for many years. This is not an annual award but will be presented when the board feels long-time members deserve special recognition.

All three awards are presented at the BTC annual End of the Year party. Please submit all nominations in writing to president@birminghamtrackclub.com.
