What I think we want to remember is that these are awarded to people who are not only promoting the rabbit industry but who are ambassadors of the SDRBA. We cannot support and promote what we are not members of. After all our objective is to recognize people who made a difference in our State and Local clubs.That is why this awards committee is placing a little more emphasis on belonging to a local affilitated state club.

We have also determinded that there may not always be someone who has met all of the criteria especially for the Legacy Award and at the discretion of the awards committee there may not be anyone receiving that award in that year.
