Each year the National Water Safety Congress (NWSC) presents awards at the “Summit” to selected individuals and organizations who have made outstanding contributions to water safety during the previous year. The National Water Safety Congress has an extensive award program to recognize those people who contribute to the safety of everyone who enjoys water recreation.

The following are a list of the NWSC Awards to be presented at the Summit:

·    Regional Award                (one per region)

·    Award of Merit                  (numbers vary per region)

·    Letter of Commendation (numbers vary per region)

·     National Award                 (one for the entire nation) 

 

Examples of those whom you may want to consider for awards are marina operators, office personnel, sports writers, wildlife officers, radio or TV station personnel, Coast Guard Auxiliary Units, civic organizations, etc. Only one nomination should be submitted, however, additional submittals may be made in special cases. If two or more are submitted, please prioritize in order of preference for an award. Please complete and return a nomination form to your Regional Vice President.  

Recognition of those who contribute substantially to water safety is an encouraged to further promote water and boating safety, helping to reduce the number of drowning and boating accidents now occurring each year. Please research your area and nominate the most deserving individual or group for one of the awards.

 

NWSC's extensive award program recognizes the contributions of the many water safety professionals and dedicated volunteers.  Please check out our award program and nominate anyone that you know has performed a laudable water safety act.  This gives us all an opportunity to say "Thank You" and to inspire others to continue to give their best for water safety!
