Excellence in Partnerships Award

    The Corps of Engineers and the Corps Foundation have partnered to present an annual award intended to recognize outstanding contributions by a partner to the Corps recreation and environmental stewardship programs. Divisions, districts and projects should be constantly on the lookout for outstanding examples to nominate each year. Headquarters will solicit nominations during the latter part of each calendar year, and present the award the following spring.
