IAEM-USA Region 4 Issues Call for Nominations for the 2011 Clayton R. Christopher Award (08/02/11) IAEM-USA Region 4 has issued its call for nominations for the Clayton R. Christopher Annual Memorial Award for unselfish devotion and outstanding contributions to the overall Emergency Management Program. This award is presented annually by IAEM-USA Region 4 and is the foremost and only National Recognition specifically and exclusively reserved for U.S. Local Emergency Managers. There has been some confusion in the past as to eligibility for the award. All local U.S. Emergency Managers are eligible, not just Region 4 members.
He served as Director of Clayton County Civil Defense from June 1962 until his death on October 29, 1976. Mr. Christopher died in an airplane crash on his way to Thomasville, Georgia to get final approval on plans for an addition to the county civil defense center from authorities in the Civil Defense Region Headquarters. He was Clayton County’s first Civil Defense Director and was instrumental in making Emergency Management in Clayton County what it is today. He reorganized and modernized the system. He also served as President of the U.S. Civil Defense Council Region III (now Region IV).
This award is given in honor of Clayton R. Christopher for his unselfish dedication. His principles of integrity and leadership have served as a guiding force to the institution of Emergency Management and formed a strong foundation for its future.
Any member of IAEM-USA is eligible for the Clayton R. Christopher Annual Memorial Award provided he or she is:
- A local director/coordinator (City, County, Tribal)
- A member in good standing
The award is presented to a member in Recognition of Unselfish Devotion and Outstanding Contributions to the overall Emergency Management Program. All nominations must contain written justification for the award. IAEM members may nominate a local (City/County/Tribal) director/coordinator deserving of the award regardless of the geographical location of the nominee or the nominator. Nominations should be sent to the IAEM-USA Region 4 Awards Chairman no later than Oct. 12, 2011. Please send nominations to: John "Rusty" Russell, IAEM-USA Region 4 Awards Chairman, Emergency Management, P.O. Box 308, Huntsville, AL 35804, or john.russell@huntsvilleal.gov, Phone: 256-427-5130.
