STEPHEN M. RUSSELL AWARD
When the BBC leadership became
bogged down, earlier this year,
Dave Worley stepped up from his
office of 1st. Vice President to
assume the presidency and get
everyone refocused. Not only
did he have a clear vision but he
knew how and when to do all the
right things. He quickly knew that clear and certain
leadership was needed from the President and that
BBC needed inclusive management. He assumed
the role of organizing and chairing a 15-member
committee which quickly began work and steadily
gained momentum until the 2012 joint VSO/TOS
State Meeting planning is now ahead of schedule.
That, alone, has drawn praise from state leaders.
The Stephen M. Russell Award is named for a
teenage member of the Bristol Bird Club who was
a founding member when the club was chartered.
He is now retired as a professional and prominent
ornithologist from the University of Arizona. Our
club is named in his honor. This award was also
presented last year but is not necessarily awarded
every year.
Due to the lack of new faces during 2010, the
BBC did not present a "Best New Birder Award"
this year.
