DesertDevil 1 #1 December 31, 2009 I wonder how many instructors got a safety award. Who here has one? If you have one, put your name up! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kunosoura 0 #5 December 31, 2009 Never heard of it until mentioned here. For any others interested: http://www.uspa.org/Portals/0/Downloads/Other_SDChesJudy.pdf Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skybytch 273 #6 December 31, 2009 Not likely here. Sleeping with the S&TA kinda negates any possibility of receiving an award when the recipient is chosen by said S&TA. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AggieDave 6 #8 December 31, 2009 I do too. I was surprised and really grateful for having received it. They gave it to me for what I have been doing teaching canopy control to low time jumpers and students.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

When I got Skydiver of the Year, it was really special to me because it was a public vote. When I got the Safety Award, that really meant a lot to me, too, because the people who give it to you think you're safe and they appreciate your work.

riggerrob 643 #12 January 4, 2010 A few years ago Pacific Skydivers gave a "Safety" award for all the work I did with tandem, IAD and PFF students. They made a big deal out of formally announcing the award at a party and gave me a little engraved plaque. The next year, they gave the "Safety" award to the guy who organized the most "safety meetings." Hah! Hah! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
