Mike LaVoie Award

Mike LaVoie (Perseverance) Award

"……..for unusual dedication to pool"

(established Spring 1974)

 

During the Spring '74 season, this award was established to honor individual contributions to our League. Although the earliest recipients may have been honored for somewhat more humorously connected events, they were still recognized for their "unusual dedication to pool." It evolved to be more closely identified with an "unusual dedication to the League."

 

Nominees for this honor are submitted by the membership to our Board of Governors for their consideration and a vote. Although this award remains an option to be given to one of our members, it has essentially been retired and replaced by the Marvin Beisel Award. However, in no way is this meant to diminish the essential contributions of the previous recipients.  We continue to honor and thank them by listing their names and the season they were recognized.
