Barbershopper Of The Year
The Sunshine District Barbershopper Of The Year (BOTY) award is our most coveted annual award because it’s related to all those ingredients that go to make up the complete Barbershopper during a calendar year.
Due to a broader criteria, The candidates are not necessarily the same as Chapter Barbershopper Of The Year winners. This fact should be kept in mind whenever chapters prepare to submit the names of one or more candidates.
The award is made annually at our Spring Convention and is overseen by a district committee comprised of the last three award recipients.
As in the past years, all Chapter Presidents and previous District BOTY recipients for the years of 1958-2007 are requested to submit their chosen candidate(s) to be considered for our District’s most coveted annual award. The forms have been emailed to all Sunshine District Chapter Presidents and Past BOTY winners. This award is given because it is related to all of those ingredients that go to make up the complete BARBERSHOPPER during a single calendar year.
Due to broader criteria, the candidates are not necessarily the same as Chapter BOTY winners. This fact should be kept in mind whenever Chapters prepare to submit one or more candidates.
This award is presented annually at our Spring Convention and overseen by a District Committee comprised of the last three Sunshine District BOTY award recipients.
In order for the committee to have time to evaluate and validate the information on the forms, all submissions must be received by March 1, 2009 for consideration. You may print out, complete and mail the manual form or you may use the Microsoft Word document attached which utilizes form fields. Once completed, save and attach it in a return e-mail.
