HOO-HOO CLUB PROJECT AWARD

At the 1997 Hoo-Hoo International Convention in Boston, Rameses 79 Jack Jacobson was asked to chair a round table, along with Rameses 78 Al Meier, to discuss the Wood Promotion Award and the Jack Cheshire Media Award and the concern that there was very little participation over the last several years from local Hoo-Hoo clubs. After considerable discussion, it was decided that an award for a broader criteria should be created so that more clubs could participate. It would need to be an award that would not only cover a club's work with media, but also education efforts and community projects as well. From this, the "Hoo-Hoo International Activity Award" began. It has since been renamed the "Hoo-Hoo Club Project Award".
