Each year ASCA may recognize a person or persons who have contributed to the breed and/or ASCA in an outstanding manner. The History Committee holds responsibility for designating the person/persons prior to the spring Board of Directors meeting each year. If such a presentation is made, the Board of Directors will discuss and vote on the nominee(s) at the spring meeting. If the spring Board of Directors meeting is not held, voting will be made by conference call or email.
The announcement of a Lifetime Achievement Award is made by the History Committee who is responsible for honoring the designated person(s) in the September/October issue of the Aussie Times. The presentation is made in the Aussie Times as a full page black and white announcement.
As a further method of honoring the designated person(s), the designee(s) are presented to all attending the Nationals Banquet, if the honoree(s) wish to attend. The recipients of the Lifetime Achievement Award are given a Lifetime Membership to ASCA and receive a free subscription to the Aussie Times.
