Through a generous gift, the necessary endowment for an 18 Meter
Nationals trophy is in place. However, as yet we have no trophy, and
would like to rectify this situation in time to present it to the 2009
winner. As such, we would like to request proposals from the SSA
membership for its design and construction.
Since this will be a traveling trophy, awarded each year on the site
of the competition, it must be sturdy, robust, and come with a stout
container to protect it against damage. It would also be beneficial
to have appropriate surfaces for the inscription on winners for a
considerable number of years. Beyond that, creativity and ingenuity
are encouraged, and all proposals will be thoroughly reviewed by the
endowment donor and the SSA Awards Chairman, Jay McDaniel.
The deadline for receipt of proposals will be December 31, 2008, and
the winner will be announced by January 31, 2009, subject to approval
of the design by the SSA’s Board of Directors. Completion of
construction by the final day of the 2009 18 Meter Nationals will be
mandatory.
Kindly forward design and cost information to Doug Jacobs
) and Jay McDaniel ).
