The Forest Service presented the award to PATC President Joe Lombardo in a ceremony in DC on April 22. At the same time, the Lee Ranger District held a special reception for local volunteers in the District Office in Edinburg. Five SSVC trail workers attended the reception and watched the award ceremony online.
