TThe intent of this yearly award is to honor the MRC Member or Members who have served the breed as well as the Club through public education and activities. Individuals must be nominated. Nominations are to be sent to one of the members of the PESA Committee (listed below) and must substantiate what the nominee has done to promote the Rottweiler in a positive manner.
A nominee must be an MRC member for consecutive five years and only members in good standing will be considered. When making the final selection, the Committee will keep in mind that there are two parts to be considered….the quantitative and qualitative. If, in the opinion of the Committee, there are two equally deserving individuals who meet all of the criteria, two awards will be presented that year. In the case of a husband and wife, only one plaque will be given. The maximum number of awards to be presented in any given year will be two.
An individual may receive the MRC Public Education Service Award only once. If no nominations are received by the Committee, no award will be presented that year. All submissions/records will be kept by the Committee for auditing purposes. The cut off date for submissions is September 1st.
