Annual Awards

History of BBSC Awards

Old Boot Award

The Old Boot Award (aka the Legacy Award) dates to 1965 and is presented annually to the skier "whose after skiing efforts have done the most to further the sport." This means BBSC members who exemplify volunteerism by their continuing efforts to assist and be involved with club activities. The original award was designed and created by BBSC member, Frank Crow (deceased), and it had an old after ski boot attached. The September 1998 BBSC board of director minutes indicate "that the award was in sad and grave shape." At the direction of the board, BBSC member, Lowell Hocking, designed the current hexagonal base with brass plates for the annual recipient(s) and an old after ski boot attached at the top. It is on display at the Bogus Basin down town office.

Sally Rutledge Inspirational Award

The Sally Rutledge Inspirational Award was started in 2009 and is awarded to the club member (past or present) who has the courage and  tenacity to overcome severe challenges.

Sally was born Sept. 15, 1943, in Boise to Helen (Carlson) and Clyde Rutledge.  She passed away on June 25, 2008, after a two year battle against cancer.  While undergoing many courses of chemotherapy and radiation, Sally energetically continued to enjoy skiing, tennis, yoga, cycling, weekends in McCall, visits with friends and relatives. She graduated from the University of Idaho, started her teaching career in Boise, then went to Denver for three years, taught skiing at Steamboat Springs for two years, and returned to Boise where she taught fourth grade for thirty years in Meridian and Eagle until retirement in 2005. She spent many years on the volunteer ski patrol at Bogus Basin.

Michael Bouton presented the idea for this award to the BBSC board of directors prior to the 2009 general membership annual meeting, and Sally's sister attended that meeting where she accepted on Sally's behalf the first presentation of this award.

Awards - 2022

FWSA Charity & Community Service Recognition Award

 

BBSC was honored to be awarded a Diamond Recognition for their charity and community service by the FWSA for the third year in a row.  Barb Bryant accepted the award on behalf of the club in recognition of her on-going work on the Greenwood Snowsports Scholarship. The intent of this award is to encourage charity and community involvement in all our FWSA councils and clubs and to recognize all clubs and councils for their outstanding financial and/or volunteer support to one or more charitable organizations.  This award shows the ski world how much the FWSA encourages volunteerism and charity involvement, and it shows our Industry partners what a big and kind heart the members of FWSA have.

BBSC Man of the Year award

 

Craig Olsen has dedicated long hours creating the club’s online “e-blast” announcements and The Mogul newsletter, and he was an integral part in the time-consuming transition to a new membership system and website. He has streamlined the entire process, and as webmaster,  tirelessly uploaded photos and documents to create the functional website we enjoy today that announces new events, trips and acts as a repository of historical files for all members to access at anytime. His attention to quality and detail is unsurpassed, helping to shape the BBSC into a truly professional organization. Craig transitioned off the Board this past year mentoring a new webmaster & eblast creator. We can't thank him enough for his years of service. (Craig was not present at the meeting).

volunteer raffle winner

 

Fred Uranga, our club historian who keeps track of all the volunteer hours donated by club members for both club and community service, collected slips for all the volunteers and drew the raffle for the volunteer prize. Doug Baker won the raffle drawing — a free Bogus Basin season pass.

FWSA Charity & Community Service Recognition Award

 

For the second year in a row BBSC was awarded a Diamond Recognition for their charity and community service by the FWSA for 2020-21. The intent of this award is to encourage charity and community involvement in all our FWSA councils and clubs and to recognize all clubs and councils for their outstanding financial and/or volunteer support to one or more charitable organizations.  This award shows the ski world how much the FWSA encourages volunteerism and charity involvement, and it shows our Industry partners what a big and kind heart the members of FWSA have. Much of the recognition for this year's award is for BBSC's efforts in establishing and promoting the ongoing Bob Greenwood Athletic Scholarship program over the past three years, in large part due to the countless efforts of Barbara Bryant in obtaining the special ski and lodging packages that have been auctioned to raise funds to support this program.

The Distinguished Service Award was given to John Klotz, our McU Sports partner & owner.

BLACK DIAMOND AWARD

 

First awarded in 2016, this lighthearted award is made completely in jest.

In skiing the Black Diamond run (or the European term Piste) is generally known as the most difficult slope to maneuver and requires superior skills and determination.  The Bogus Basin Ski Club awards selective members with this designation when they have demonstrated a particular skill or behavior in the most determined manner during the past year.

For the 2016-2017 year we recognize Dave Bergerud for his demonstrated Black Diamond skills in keeping track of his ski gear during the club’s recent jaunt to Banff Canada.  Dave is a recognized accomplished skier who always skis with our best.  Double Black diamond slopes are rarely a challenge for him.  So why does he deserve this august award?

This is an account fully attested to by several eye-witnesses. As everyone casually packed their personal items and ski gear the day before departure from Canada, Dave frustratingly come to the conclusion that he was missing his ski bag.  He was diligent and search his room to no avail. But being a resourceful chap, he finally went to the front dest and asked for any kind of packing tape they had so he could secure his skis and poles for checking them in at the airport. He then went back to his room and finished packing, and as he did, he checked the cabinet drawers one last time and found his ski bag. Lucky find. No doubt Jeffrey, Guy or Paul was hiding it all along.
In recognition of his skills to innovate, Dave is awarded the Black Diamond and his very own roll of duct tape for the next time he has ski gear issues.

second black diamond award

 

First awarded in 2016, this lighthearted award is made completely in jest.

For the 2016-2017 year we also recognize Carol Peterson for her demonstrated Black Diamond skills while enjoying the vast Anthony Lakes, Oregon skiing resort. Of course we are amiss if we don’t first recognize Carol’s past. We all know Carol as a champion Olympian, a Ski Patrol savant, a cyclist to put all bikers to shame, and of course at times a bit cranky; but all-in-all someone we all admire. She was awarded the Ski Club’s prestigious Sally Rutledge Award last year. She is the vision and power behind the Bogus Basin Ski Club website, editor and producer of the club’s newsletter, The Mogul, and the one who insures we get club e-mails (the e-blasts). With that all said, why does she deserve this award?

Anthony Lakes has a singularly thrilling ski lift, taking skiers to the very top of the resort, and that’s where she demonstrated her decades of skiing aptitude. While skiing all day and near the last of dozens of ski runs, Carol was alone and preparing to dethrone from her lift chair. Well, she not only targeted the first orange cone (you know the the cones that guide you to the ski runs), she ran over the whole row. Predictably, she had quite a smile in knowing she “still had it,” but thinking of the skiers who may follow, she quickly regained her composure and ordered the astonished club member who witnesses the event to “put the cones back up.” In appreciation of her skills, Carol is award the Black Diamond and her very own cone.

SALLY RUTLEDGE INSPIRATIONAL AWARD

 

Established in 2009, this distinction is awarded to the club member (past or present) who has the courage and tenacity to overcome severe challenges in their life.

Tina Richards is the recipient for this year (2016-2017) for her outstanding perseverance in continuing to ski despite her ongoing  cancer treatments.

The 2nd Black Diamond Award for the season (a pair of handcuffs) went to Sue and Doug Baker, who could not keep track of each other while in Interlaken. Doug got off the ski train with his skis as well as Sue's. Sue stayed on the train. The train left the station. And that was just the first of many Baker mishaps!

Distinguished Service Award


This award is given when someone does an exceptional job volunteering and it includes a season pass to Bogus Basin.

Darryl Kuhrt was presented with the Distinguished Service award. After four years as president of the club, club bylaws require Darryl to step down as we begin the new fiscal year. We are ALL grateful for the dedication and time Darryl has given.
