Volunteer Awards

  

 

BLM's National Training Center in Phoenix coordinated a teleconference award ceremony with the Washington Office and seven State Offices. New Interior Secretary Sally Jewel welcomed the volunteer winners in a videotaped message.  

 

On May 23, 2013, BLM presented the National Volunteer Awards to four individuals, one couple, one group, and one BLM employee for outstanding volunteer service or volunteer leadership on BLM-managed lands.

 

The volunteers selected for this year’s awards were: Ray and Linda Panter, Central Yukon Field Office, Alaska; Annette Froehlich (Lifetime Achievement), Las Cruces District Office, New Mexico; Joshua Barlow, Price Field Office, Utah; Upper Ridge Wilderness Association (Lifetime Achievement), Redding Field Office, California; Illa Willmore (Lifetime Achievement), Upper Missouri River Breaks National Monument, Montana; and Pat Williams (Milestone Award), Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area, Nevada. Warren J. Trogden, Sr. of the Challis Field Office, Idaho, was the winning BLM employee.
