Description
2022 Mr Henry M Nixon Jr Hank Nixon is recognized for his many years of service to the SSA, and to US contest pilots and contest organizers. Hank was first elected to a 4-year term on the SSA Contest Rules Committee in 1995. He was re-elected by his fellow racing pilots for a series of consecutive 4-year terms and was selected by the Rules Committee members to be their chairman for several years beginning in 2007 and then again in 2016/2017. Hank accepted an appointment as the SSA Contest Committee Chairman in 2018. This chairmanship position has SSA oversight responsibility for the Contest Rules Committee, the US Team Committee, the Site Selection Committee, and the Handicapping Committee, and includes membership in all of those committees. It is a lot of work! Hank has performed all of his SSA volunteer assignments in an exemplary manner and has also spent a great deal of time and effort supporting the Valley Soaring Club and promoting youth in soaring. If ever there was a shining example of Exceptional Service to the SSA and our wonderful sport, Hank Nixon is it!
2021 Mr Ronald N Ridenour For decades Ron has been an important contributor to soaring, soaring safety and aviation education. For many years he has served as a Trustee and Treasurer of the Soaring Safety Foundation. He is a regular contributor to Soaring magazine, authoring frequent articles on soaring safety issues. He also participates in SSF site visits to evaluate and make recommendations for improvement in local soaring safety. Ron is an active contest pilot. And a number of times he has given up the opportunity to compete in a contest in order to serve as competition director. One example was the 2018 Region 6 North contest at Adrian, Michigan. Ron arrived with his glider expecting to fly as a contestant. When he learned that the individual who had agreed to serve as CD was unavailable due to an unexpected last-minute issue, he gave up the opportunity to compete and took on the CD’s task. He did an excellent job, resulting in a good contest with many safe flights. In addition to competing in soaring contests and his work with SSF, Ron is a regular contributor to safety talks at contests. Ron serves currently as President of the Chicago Glider Club. He has previously served as treasurer and in many other positions. As a flight instructor for gliders and airplanes, he is involved in training club instructors, and in flight training generally. He recently took on responsibility to train the two teenage sons of a deceased friend and glider pilot, in addition to his many other responsibilities. As an aircraft mechanic with inspector authorization Ron also plays a leading role in maintaining and inspecting the Club’s airplanes and gliders. As the principal designated pilot examiner for gliders in the Chicago area Ron is responsible for evaluating for the FAA most applicants for glider ratings in the area. He also serves as a DPE for airplane, airplane instrument and more advanced ratings. Ron is a retired United Airlines captain, where he served as line-check airman responsible for training and evaluating line pilots. By Mike Shakman
2021 Mr Walter A. Rogers The US Team Committee would like to nominate: Walt Rogers for an SSA Exceptional Service Award for his remote weather support for the US Teams during the following contests: 2014 World Gliding Championships at Leszno, Poland, 2017 World Gliding Championships at Benalla, Australia, 2020 Women’s World Gliding Championships at Lake Keepit, Australia, 2021 World Gliding Championships at Montlucon, France. This support required Walt to spend 2 - 3 hours per day or evening to gather the weather information and package it up, and send it to the team at their overseas locations. This support was provided during the official practice days through the end of the contest which is about 17 days long. Here's a sample from Friday, August 20th for the 2021 WGC in Montlucon, France: click here The feedback from all pilots on these US Teams found it very helpful and it provided a different perspective compared to the information provided by the contest weather team. At times, the contest wx information was not very complete or helpful. By Pete Alexander
2021 Mr John Seaborn The SSA relies heavily upon volunteers to service its members and to support and grow our great sport. The number of SSA members has been declining for many years and we have desperately needed an effective marketing campaign and strategy that can better make use of current digital marketing tools. John Seaborn has stepped forward and “taken ownership” of a project to develop and implement a new SSA Digital Marketing Campaign. His expertise and efforts exemplify the type of Exceptional Service that will help the SSA thrive. Thank you, John. By Ken Sorenson
2021 Ms. Ann Lafford Ever since she joined the Finger Lake Soaring Club back in 1991, Ann Lafford's contribution to soaring has been tremendous. She has and continues to make an impact on the Finger Lakes Soaring Club. She has been on the club‘s board serving as a Receiving Treasury for 3 terms, (term is 3 years each). Ann also was instrumental on putting a strategic plan together for the club by doing workshops to get all members involved. She put two of these plans together over the years.

2019 Mr. Garret I. Willat The SSA Exceptional Service Award is presented to Garret Willat for his many years of service to the SSA as a US Junior/Team coach. In addition, his excellent articles in Soaring magazine and in his Wings & Wheels columns have provided insightful, informative, and entertaining information on a wide range of topics. These writings have worked to both promote safe practices and to encourage and develop more and better cross-country soaring skills.
2019 Mr Colin Mead The SSA Exceptional Service Award is presented to Colin Mead for his exemplary service as US Team Captain at the 1st FAI Pan American Gliding Championships, at the 2018 World Gliding Championships at Ostrow, Poland, and at the 3rd FAI Pan American Gliding Championships. Each of the projects involved major logistical and organizational challenges. Most recently, he managed an unusually large team with a total of seventeen(!) US Team pilots at the 3rd FAI PAGC in Canada. This was especially challenging.
2018 Mr. David Lessnick David M. Lessnick conceived, planned, organized, and implemented an SSA Webinar Series focused on cross-country soaring techniques, glider flight training, and other topics of interest to sailplane pilots. The webinar presenters have included experienced and knowledgeable pilots from a variety of soaring interest groups. Attendance at the webinars has been spectacular – so good that some webinars were oversubscribed. Many of the webinars have been incorporated into the FAA WINGS training program and have been promoted by the FAA to an audience beyond the SSA membership and current sailplane pilots. The webinars have supported SSA’s ongoing membership growth effort -- some lapsed SSA members have been prompted to rejoin, some wavering members have been retained, and interest in soaring has been promoted among pilots who are not (yet) sailplane pilots. The webinars are recorded and available as an SSA member benefit on the SSA website. David’s contribution to the sport of soaring and to the SSA has been truly exceptional.
2018 Mr Peter T Alexander Pete Alexander exemplifies what it means to give back to the sport of soaring. Pete has been an active sailplane pilot since the 1970s. He became an avid contest pilot in 1986 and as soon as his career allowed him to do so, he became an active SSA volunteer. He has served on the Contest Site Selection Committee since 2010. He has served on the US Team Committee since 2014 and has been Chairman of that committee since 2015. During his tenure as US Team Committee chairman he led the effort to update the process used to select and train US Team pilots. He has served the SSA as a Director at Large since 2017. In 2018 he supported the US Team at the World Gliding Championships in the Czech Republic as Team Captain. Thank you Pete for all you have done for us.
2018 Mr John F Good John Good has provided exceptional service to the soaring community and to the SSA for many years. His most recent contributions have focused on the support and management of SSA contests and US Teams participating at World Gliding Championships (WGCs). He served us as Contest Committee Chairman from late 2014 through 2017. He had previously served in this position in the 1990s. He has served as US Team Captain at several recent WGCs, including Junior World Gliding Championships and Women’s World Gliding Champio.nships. He has also served as crew for a number of pilots competing at WGCs, and did an outstanding job of posting interesting and entertaining reports and blogs during the events. Thank you John for all you have done for us.
2017 Mr. John T. Molumphy III I am writing to nominate Mr. John T. Molumphy of the Blue Ridge Soaring Society for a SSA Exceptional Service Award. The rational for the award is recognition of his efforts to support soaring, sailplane pilots and the Blue Ridge Soaring Society over a very long period. John is one of those unsung people in our sport who has a great love of soaring and selflessly works to provide instruction, guidance and support for all of us. John has been a member of the Soaring Society of America for over 30 years (he earned his A and B badges in 1985) and is recognized throughout our area for his accomplishments in many arenas.
2017 Mr. Marion S. Griffith Jr. Marion S Griffith is hereby nominated for the Exceptional Service Award for his many contributions to the Soaring Society of America and the sport of soaring. Marion served as SSA President, was the principal organizer of the first SSA convention, was a founder of the Dallas Gliding Association which started and funded the Johnson Flight Tests, was a director of Southwest Soaring (a commercial Texas soaring center), state and national open class record holder, and regional and national open class competitor. His career with the USAF, Braniff, and Rediffusion Visual Systems brought a wealth of experience in flight training, training management and philosophy, flight simulation, and interfacing with regulatory agencies to the SSA and sport of soaring.
2017 Ms Sarah Arnold Sarah Arnold is recognized with the SSA Exceptional Service Award for her dedicated service to the sport of soaring and her on going work, leadership, and dedication to the US Team Committee. Sarah has been a member of the US Team Committee for over 5 years continuing to serve as the US Team Committee Treasurer for over 4 years. She managed and organized the 2012 US Team Training Camp at Chilhowee arranging for Brian Spreckley (from the UK) to coach the US Team pilots going to 2012 WGC at Uvalde and arranging sailplanes from a couple of the local Chilhowee pilots for some of the pilots coming from the west coast for the 5 day camp. Sarah organized and managed the 1st Pan American Gliding Championships (PAGC) in 2015 at Chilhowee Gliderport in Chilhowee, TN. She continues to manage the creation and distribution of the US Team WGC and PAGC uniforms which she has done for the 10 US Teams during the following years: 2014, 2015, 2016, and 2017. She also managed the creation of two unique US Team logos for the uniforms and patches for the WGCs in Pociunai, Lithuania and Benalla, Australia. Finally, Sarah’s 2nd place finish at the 2017 9th Women’s World Gliding Championships in Zbraslavice, Czech Republic serves as an inspiration to us all.
2017 Mr. Fernando B. Silva Fernando has been soaring for more than 25 years, holds a number of state records, and has won a number of Regional contests. He was 2015 15-meter National Champion and the 2017 Seniors Champion. He serves as weatherman for many of the Regional and National contests. He is always glad to help other contest pilots and recently conducted the US Team Camp at Cordele, GA. He is currently serving as the Team Captain for the US Junior Team in Lithuania.
2016 WSPA At a time when soaring in general and the SSA in this country are losing members at an alarming rate, WSPA is thriving and its membership is on the rise. The organization has about 250 members in about 10 countries. In 2001 WSPA began reaching out over the borders. In the past 7 years three seminars were held outside the US: 2009 in Slovenia, 2014 in Canada, and 2016 in Italy. At the 2016 seminar, 39 participants (with the largest group coming from the US) from 9 countries attended. The participants came from Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Israel, Italy, Slovenia, Switzerland and the USA. WSPA began with only women members but by adding several membership categories has now evolved into an organization of which 25% of its members are men ( “Associated Members” not eligible to vote). WSPA, a Division of the SSA, is continuing its mission to promote and support women in soaring and doing so by reaching out to women world wide.
2015 Mr John D. Godfrey John exemplifies the type of service to the SSA that keeps our organization alive. John is currently Chairman of the SSA Foundation as well as chairman of the Contest Rules Committee. He has served SSA contest pilots many times as Competition Director and as Scorer and has developed a system for remotely scoring contests. He served as a Scorer at the 2012 World Gliding championships in Uvalde, Texas and at the 2015 Pan American Gliding championships.

2015 Mr Stephen A Northcraft Steve received this award for his work in drafting the SSA’s response to the FAA Advance Notice of Proposed Rule Making regarding the proposed abrogation of the glider transponder exemption. Steve’s unique expertise, historical knowledge and writing ability as the primary drifter of SSA’s response was of the utmost value to SSA and to the gliding community in the United States and resulted in a powerful argument against any changes to the existing rules.
2015 Mr Phillip Umphres Phil received this award for all of his work in helping to draft a response to the FAA Advance Notice of Proposed Rule Making regarding the proposed abrogation of the glider transponder exemption. This is a serious issue concerning the glider community and Phil’s help in drafting the response on behalf of SSA was of the utmost importance. His expertise as a long time SSA Director as well as his law background, was a valuable asset to the committee working on this matter.
2015 Mr Pendleton Smith Penn was given this award for his years of leadership and guidance of the SSA Foundation. Penn’s stewardship of the SSA Foundation has resulted in a professionally managed, low overhead, consolidated investment portfolio worth over $3 million dollars today that is governed consistently with the best practices of foundation management. In addition, his unselfish assistance in guiding and assisting local soaring organizations in achieving 501(c)3 public charity status has advanced the interests of the soaring community.
2013 Mr Allison H. Tyler Jr. Al was commended for his service on numerous committees as an SSA Director, and as Chairman of the SSA.

2013 Mr Douglas J. Easton In addition to all the volunteer work he has done in the past several years, 2013 was again a year in which Doug went above and beyond for the benefit of the SSA. Taking the initiative, he completely overhauled the SSA website. The new website is fresher, more accessible and packed with more features that ever before. As if overhauling the entire website was not enough, he worked to provide data feed to enable our new sailplane tracker to fully integrate with the SSA web.
