SPECIAL AWARDS NOMINATIONS

SPECIAL AWARDS NOMINATION PROCESS

The nomination process for the Aloha Section Special Awards is open to all members of the Aloha Section PGA of America in good standing. This year, the process from nomination to selection has been slightly revised to better align the Aloha Section with the standards of our National Office and other Sections.

As a reminder, these members are not eligible to be nominated if they received that particular award within the last (2) years. Below is a list of previous winners from the last two (2) years.

Should you have any questions about the process, please feel free to contact me directly or Executive Director – Wesley Wailehua (808) 593-2230
