AKC Outstanding Sportsmanship Award
In the American Kennel Club's ongoing efforts to recognize and celebrate its volunteer club members, the AKC Outstanding Sportsmanship Award program was established in 2006 to provide each member club with an AKC Medallion to award to one of its own on a yearly basis.
This award honors those individuals who deserve special recognition that have made a difference in the sport of purebred dogs, embodied the AKC Code of Sportsmanship, and have been an active and valued member of an AKC member club. Medallions are awarded solely at the club's discretion.
The Board of the WHWTCA would like the members to consider possible candidates for this award and submit the names to us. Please send your submissions to our Corresponding Secretary, Cindy Ladutko, email: ladutko@aol.com, cell phone: 302-593-8136.
