Club Awards

Club awards are voted on by club members each spring. The awards serve as a way to recognize outstanding club leaders throughout the club. Participation in club activities, willingness to volunteer and help out with club events, along with a positive attitude are vital to winning these awards. The award recipients have given a vast amount of their time and energy to the Iowa State Block and Bridle Chapter; this member’s scholarship, awards, activities, positions held, and class standing are all taken into consideration.
