| The President and the Awards Committee present Club Awards at the Induction/Installation Ceremony held in June. Club members participate by nominating their candidate for each award category. These are "traveling" awards, meaning the recipient receives and displays the award during the next club year. The awards remain the property of the JWC of Raleigh. |
