Boosters look for Elliott award nominations

The Blue Pony Booster Club is in need of nomination for the Dr. Jim Elliott Memorial Award. Dr. Elliott’s family gave the first award in 2001 and purchased a plaque that hangs in a trophy case in Havre High School’s west foyer with the name of each recipient engraved on it. The Booster Club has been given the responsibility from the Elliott family of choosing someone to receive this award.

The honor of receiving this award is based on volunteerism, along with personal and/or professional sacrifices made for the betterment of the Blue Pony activities as Dr. Elliott demonstrated year after year. This award is intended to be for more than just a fan but for an individual who truly makes an impact on our high school activities and athletics.

The award is not eligible for any current Havre Public School employees or Havre Public School Foundation or Blue Pony Booster Club board members.

The first honoree of this award was Wells Lamey. Other individuals who have received this award are Ron Holden, Pat Newell, Chuck Williams, Dave and Pam Wilson, Kathie Newell, Dr. Gerald Olson, Mary Stevens and the most recent honoree, Noel Henderson.

Please put on your thinking cap and send us the name of someone you would like to nominate, along with an explanation of why you would like to have them honored with this award.

Send nominations to Blue Pony Booster Club, PO Box 704, Havre, MT by Jan. 3. For more information on this award, please contact Brenda Evans at 265-8407.

Join us for the presentation of the Dr. Jim Elliott Memorial Award during a Blue Pony basketball game.
