IASC Snowmobile Family of the Year
Active, dedicated families have been the backbone of our sport from the earliest days of organized snowmobiling and it is through the hard work of these families that we have the trail system that we do today. Recognizing the importance of these families to snowmobiling, the IASC will be honoring one family each year as the association’s Snowmobile Family of the Year. The winning family will go on to compete in the ACSA American Snowmobile Family of the Year contest.
Congratulations
to the Armbrecht Family
2007 Illinois Snowmobile Family of the Year
35th Annual IASC Convention
The Armbrecht family received a special introduction at the luncheon at the annual IASC Convention. Hank and Kim are members of various clubs and hold various positions within their Clubs, regional organizations, and with the IASC. Their name will now be entered in the national competition sponsored by the American Council of Snowmobile Associations (ACSA).
This
is your opportunity to nominate those you feel best exemplify our outstanding
snowmobiling families. Nominations will be accepted from clubs, regions, and
individual members. Self-nomination is also permitted. There is no restriction
on how many nominations can be submitted from a region or club — we want to
learn about as many dedicated families as we can! Your nominees should include
snowmobilers that have demonstrated a deep commitment to snowmobiling and are
involved in snowmobile organizations striving to make the sport even more
enjoyable in the future.
The
IASC does have some expectations from the winners of the Snowmobile Family of
the Year award. It will be their responsibility to promote a positive image of
snowmobiling any time they are representing us as well as promoting the Zero
Tolerance I say, Till I’m done for the day and Snowmobilers Care
About the Environment themes. They will need to attend the IASC
Convention luncheon at which time they will receive their award, and where
they will present the award to the new Snowmobile Family of the Year the
following year. The
winning family is also expected to attend the IASC Legal Action Fund-raiser
and local events in their area and to provide pictures to the magazine from
each event that they attend. Snowmobilers from outside the IASC will do
judging for the Family of the Year award.
