I am not going to let you be the only one BBMike
I received the St. Vincent de Paul award for client care when I took my nursing so I was basically recognize by the teachers and nurses that I worked on the floor with during my placements an how I interacted and treated my clients. It probably didn't hurt that I even brought in my guitar and put on concerts for the clients that couldn't leave the facility in order to cheer them up and make their day a little brighter.

Smile just a few that I can think of.

Well this is fun, I have won a few awards in the life time.
Probably the earliest would be in Little league baseball 1st team trophy.
Got a few for Racing on Dirt.
Got a few for Model Building. State Champ as well.
Got a couple for Car shows.
My favorites were when I received from my Son when he got his Eagle Scout award, He gave me the Mentors pin and the Eagle scout Dad Pin, that was great.


Got the Monte of the Month May 2015.
Got 7 wins in the Photo contest on Monte Carlo Forum tied w/zippy02.
Won best entry for the local parade back in 1993 for doing an F-14 Tomcat that kids could ride in.

Archery best score with a Recurve Bow ( traditional shooting)


A few shooting awards with rifle.
Won the top shot in Basic Training US Army 1970.
Sometimes the best award is the smile you can put on someone's face for just being a nice person. I have one that award a few times.
You just do something nice when it is least expected.



One time I was part of a division team event where everyone at the Job I worked at won a very prestigious award. The employees wives all got an award and flowers sent to the house. The Division manager said that I didn't qualify for the award because of the position that I had. I laughed like I was like the janitor or something. But there were 4 other guys like me in the State that did get the Award. One of them showed it to me and was told not to ever tell me about it. Turns out headquarters had sent an award for me too. But someone didn't like that I was supposed to get it so that one went in the Trash at the Regional office. funny stuff!!

Thumbs up Thanks You > Thank You!

Thanks Mod `Barbara & Member `Dale
Thanks for posting & sharing your super awards and achievements

I'm impressed and I feel I know more about both of you.
I think it's great to be recognize for one's achievements.

Being raised and homeschooled by senior citizens in a remote Beach Village, the bums and I never had the opportunity to play sports @ a school, but we did get stars on our homework if we did well... It was like a award

I hope your posts encourage other member's to share. I know many are humble, shy & don't like to brag, but the MCF is your auto family and it's good to get to know your family.

I'm realizing that the MCF has so many member's with hidden talents and hidden abilities on our forum.

I'm proud of the member's that posted & I'm thankful to be associated with them.

Now, I must try harder & do better & maybe I'll get an award (?) I won't give up on my dreams...I working on trying to give myself a award of a new Camaro or Corvette in my future
