Letter to the Editor - Nominations for Elliott Award sought

Editor,

The Blue Pony Booster Club is in need of nominations 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 at the Havre High School’s west foyer with the name of each recipient engraved on in. 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.

Any current Havre Public School employees or Havre Public School Foundation or Blue Pony Booster Club current board membersare not eligible for the award.

The first honoree of this award was the late Wells Lamey. Other individuals who have received this award are Dave and Pam Wilson, Kathie Newell, Dr. Gerald Olson, Mary Stevens, Charlie Klimas and the most recent honoree, Bob Evans Sr.

So please put on your thinking cap and send us who you would like to nominate and 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 or email them to [email protected] by Jan. 7. Should you like additional information on this award, please contact Stacy Rismon [email protected]/.

We are very pleased to present this award and want to thank all of you for your supporting the activities and athletics of all students of Havre High School.

Thank You.

Stacy Rismon, President

Blue Pony Booster Club
