This award is given in honor of one of our founding members. Dorothy Rex, who is an OSU Extension support staff emeriti. She was the first president of CES in Ohio and was instrumental in laying the foundation of the first Extension support staff organization. She remains active with our organization as an OSU Extension support staff emeriti.
This award is presented each year, in her honor, to an individual who has been inspirational in their Extension position. The Recognition Committee will accept nominations and will work with Kathy Gamble (Dorothy's niece) and must include the nominee's name and a brief explanation of how that member has been an inspiration to you and others. Dorothy herself will review the nominations.
