Young Achievers Award
Young Achiever Award Winners 2008
The Club's Young Achiever Awards are back for 2009. The aim of the competition is to recognise the contributions of young Camping and Caravanning Club members to our society.
We’re looking for youngsters who’ve used their skills – perhaps as first aiders, community volunteers, Countryside Carers, District Association (DA) or Special Interest Section helpers, explorers or camping ambassadors – to make the most of the great outdoors.
We welcome nominations from all over the UK. From parents, friends or the young people themselves – simply fill in an entry form.
Competition Update
Entries are now closed and the winners will be selected on 13 July, details will then be published on this page.
Entries will be divided into two age categories
- 12 to 14
- 15 to 17 (inclusive)
A national winner will be chosen from each. There will be prizes of £100 and a certificate for each Regional winner, Section winner and winners who applied directly through Club Headquarters.
The overall winners each receive a further £250, which is presented at the National Feast of Lanterns where the family gets to stay for free.
Winners 2008
Under 15 winner – Dale Carcary
Dale has given continued commitment to The Club, representing us at DA, Regional, National and International levels. He has recently represented Scotland at the International Youth Rally, and held his own as the youngest Scottish youth member. He is undoubtedly an asset to his DA, to his Club, and an inspiration to many.
Under 18 winner – Rebecca Dwyer
Rebecca has a particular interest in conservation projects and has been heavily involved in our Countryside Care section which works on projects around the UK. Rebecca turns her hand to a variety of projects including coppicing trees and clearing the waters edge at Rutland Water.
