MEMBER OF THE YEAR             2007

The tradition of our region to honor one individual with Member of the Year goes back to our earliest days. 

A long time ago, some past Board thought it fitting to honor the commitment and sharing that is today, a BVR strength.  We looked around and found one person who, for years, has devoted himself to the club, in many ways.

He is frequently coming up with new ways to attract more members.  He is always on the hunt for ideas to promote our club and our activities and highlite our “friendly region” aura.  Over the years he has quietly gone out  on his own and promoted BVR in local events and saw to it we were recognized in numerous publications.  When some idea was brought to the Board, we would say, go check it out.

We on the Board could see this dedication to making BVR a name in local circles.  This year, we were informed of the Autorama Car Show, and I said, come back with a plan of how to join in this Beloit Super show.  He did,  and then went on to coordinate our effort, which was a great success for the club.   We have been asked to do this again next year.  He does all this while at the same time traveling to disaster areas with the Red Cross.  You have probably seen our member in a tow truck, or a fire suit, or as track liaison.

For dedication over the years, and outstanding promotion this year,   the Member of the Year  is….. Davidle Anderson
