Named in honor of two outstanding faculty advisors for their years of service in the Rocky Mountain District, the Tony Perea/Carol Wallander Outstanding Faculty Advisor is designed to recognize outstanding faculty advisors whose personal involvement, counseling, leadership, and encouragement help their club have outstanding years of service.
The Gold Starfish Recognition pin is a special version reserved for those who, in the opinion of the District Administrator, have made a significant difference for the Rocky Mountain District of Key Club. There is no quota for presentation of the Gold Starfish Recognition. Rather, they are presented as the need arises.
The Silver Starfish is given to District Board Members to recognize someone who made a difference for them over the course of their service year. Annually at DCON, each Board member is given one pin to present to an individual of their choosing – a family member, advisor, fellow Key Clubber, friend – anyone who made a difference for them during their year on the board. The only requirement is that they cannot keep the pin for themselves.
The Sandy Nininger medal was created for Key Club members who distinguish themselves by making the most of their opportunities. Like Sandy, these members inspire us all to care deeply, engage enthusiastically, and make the most of our lives. The Rocky Mountain District Sandy Nininger Award was established to recognize outstanding contributions by Key Clubbers from within the District. The recognition is for those who’ve gone above and beyond what is expected during their Key Club career.
The Early Bird Award is presented to the club that pays all their dues in the quickest amount of time. ​​​
