Life membership is an honour bestowed on a Club member whose continuous, loyal and outstanding service and contribution has a provided measurable benefit to the Nowra Athletics Club.
On Saturday 30th April, life membership was awarded to Darlene Musgrove and Scott Johnson for their significant and appreciated contribution to the athletic community.
Both recipients were honoured with this prestigious award and extremely grateful (although very surprised!)
Darlene was recognised for her long-standing involvement with the Club as a runner, a supporter and a committee member and was acknowledged for all her voluntary work as publicity officer. Darlene’s work promoting the Club and using communication to not only inform members, but create a sense of belonging, particularly throughout the COVID restrictions was applauded.
Scott was recognised for his ‘rapid rise to the top’ after serving as Club President for the last 6 years. He was congratulated for his calm leadership and positive attitude as he steers the Club forward. Scott is well respected as a member and as Club President for encouraging ideas of others and valuing their opinion and input. Scott’s commitment to the Club’s ongoing development and his motivation for getting on with what needs to be done was commended.
Congratulations to both these hard-working and worthy award winners.
