NCTA Chapter, Affiliate, and partner leaders can select local volunteers to receive Honor Awards.
This award is different in that there is no nomination: The award is guaranteed. If a Chapter or Affiliate manages more than 200 miles, they shall be entitled to one Honor Award recipient for every 100 miles the Chapter/Affiliate maintains. The criteria is as follows: “Chapter or Affiliate volunteers who demonstrate loyalty, commitment, and hard work annually to the local organization’s chosen activities.”
The extended deadline of October 31, 2024 has ended and the nomination form is now closed.
Any Chapter, Affiliate, or Partner who manages more than 200 miles of NCNST is entitled to one (1) honor awardee per 100 miles they maintain. For example, the Superior Hiking Trail Association (MN) may select up to three (3) Honor Award recipients; the Buckeye Trail Association (OH) may select up to eight (9); and the Finger Lakes Trail Conference (NY) may select up to three (3).
