The Austin K9-Xpress Service Award was started in 2001 to recognize members for their past
and/or present service to the club that is above and beyond expectations for their role. Club
members nominate and vote for the winner of this award which carries with it one year of paid
field fees. (Annual dues must still be paid by the recipient).
