The Terri Standley Inspirational Member Award.
This award was set up in memory of Terri who had a caring, loving heart and great skills with Fiber. She generously shared herself and her knowledge with each of us in the Guild without limitations and sometimes unknowingly to us. This award is given to a member who has been an inspiration to other Guild members. Inspiration may be broadly defined and may include terms such as thoughtfulness, kindhearted, a mentor, generous with her/his expertise and or time, a friend to the Guild.
The Marjorie Erickson Memorial Award.
This award was instituted to honor the memory of Marjorie and her lifelong commitment and generosity to the Guild as well as teaching weaving. Qualifying nominees will have completed the Beginning Weavers Class at least one year prior to the nomination and up to four years in the past. They will be current members of the Guild in good standing, active in the Guild, and have continued their pursuit of weaving.
