Square Dancing is the Official State Dance of Oregon

RECIPIENTS OF THE RANDALL AWARD

The Randall Award is the highest honor the Federation can bestow on a square dancer. Named for past Federation president Buddy Randall, the award is intended to honor those dancers who have done great service for the Oregon Federation and for square dancing in Oregon, and especially those who work behind the scenes where recognition is so rare. Nominations are solicited throughout the year. Each council delegate gets one vote in selecting the awardee.

The award is presented at the Mid-Winter Festival in January. The awardee is presented with badge bars to wear proudly, and an engraved plaque.
