Hall of fame inductees will be limited to no more then three per year. However the committee can choose to induct none if it feels none of the candidates are worthy.
Nominations will be good for two years. If they are not inducted by then they are purged from the list. After this time if the same person is nominated they will once again be eligible for two years. A person can only be inducted once.
Nominations must be received by August first to be inducted that year. Any nominations received after that date will be considered for the next two year term. This is so their names will be on the plaque for convention.
Three qualifications for Trapper Hall of Fame nomination:
- Nominees can be living or deceased but should have been active in the twentieth century.
- The nominee must be a current or past member of ISTA.
- The nominee can not be an active officer of ISTA at the time of nomination.
Inductees into the ISTA Hall of Fame are receiving the highest honor that we, the ISTA, can give to those that have given unselfishly of themselves to preserve trapping in Indiana. A memorial for all time.
The following questions guide the Awards Committee in their selection of Trapper Hall of Fame Inductees:
- What have they contributed to their state, local and national organizations?
- Have they educated trappers by writing articles and books as well as trapper education classes?
- How have Indiana trappers benefited from their efforts?
- How have their efforts helped to preserve the ISTA and continue to benefit trappers today?
In other words, Hall of Fame Members are the type of people that the foundation of the ISTA was built on. |
