Awards

Awards

“The Chief’s Volunteer Program National Awards” are given each year to a limited number of organizations and individuals in recognition of their contribution to the National Forests. In 1999, ENFIA and a long time member, Joel Knowles, received such awards. 

All ENFIA members accumulate hours for their volunteer work. Our first level award is for 1,000 hours. Awards are given bi-annually at the year end General Meeting. This is always a party meeting with games and fun filled activities. 

If you are interested in becoming a member, please see the membership page. If you are already a member and would like to get involved in one of our continuing projects, please contact one of our Board Members.
