    2023 Volunteer Award Recipients
    pleased to share the attached memos, signed by Thomas P. Smith, Chief of Operations and Regulatory, announcing the selection of the awardees for the 2023 Excellence in Partnership Award and the National Volunteer of the Year Award. These awards will be presented to each of the recipients later this year.

    National Volunteer Award: This year's USACE national volunteer of the year award recipients are Tim and Pam Harrison of Kaw Lake in the Tulsa District. The Harrisons have donated 6,763 hours of volunteer service over a five-year period including 1,475 hours in FY 2023. While at Kaw Lake, the Harrisons have supported a wide range of objectives, including visitor assistance, interpretation, landscaping, hazard tree removal, invasive species removal, campground host duties and routine repairs and maintenance. Throughout their service at Kaw Lake, they have been invaluable in recovering from several natural disasters, including the 2018 high pool event, the 2019 flood of record, the 2020 historic ice storm, and countless other storm and high wind-related events.

    I want to extend my sincere appreciation for the incredible service that all of our partners and volunteers continue to provide USACE and this Nation each and every day!
