ACSC SHAGGING ICON AWARD

The purpose of the Icon Award is to recognize individuals who have made outstanding contributions within their own (Full Member, A.C.S.C.) shag club. Nominees for this award have made significant efforts and contributions to their shag club & are clearly outstanding members of the shag community. Although some of these nominees may go on to be well known in the shag world (the A.C.S.C. or S.O.S., the C.S.A., the DJ Association, etc.) many of these individuals may not be known outside of their own club. This award has come to be one of the most highly prized awards that a shagger can attain.

To nominate a shagger for this award the president of an A.C.S.C. club must submit the completed Shagging Icon Award Nomination form by November 1st. of the current year.  The Nomination must be approved by the Club’s Board and signed by the Club’s current President. 

The Icon Award Nominations are evaluated and scored based on predetermined criteria by a 9 member evaluation team.  The evaluation team consists of volunteers from past Icon award recipients who are selected by random drawing at the ACSC Summer Workshop.  The team’s evaluation scores are submitted to the Icon Committee Co-Chairs who tally the end results.  Names of the new Icons are announced in January at the Mid-Winter Workshop. The forms must be mailed to Novelene Powell:
