Each Year, this award is given to a member of the club who went the extra mile of service to his/her fellow members.
This is an honor to receive and the recipient is selected by the president. The traveling award is presented
at our annual banquet in January. The recipient is a secret from all until the awards night.
The Shaft Award was created by our long time member, Walt Gaertner in 1979. The base is walnut, with four
eagles on the base. The shaft is a chrome Model "A" crank shaft adorned with a flying Quail
radiator cap from a 28-29 car. Not sure how much it weights, but it takes 2 persons to carry.

The following is a list of those members who have received the Shaft Award:
