The deadline for nominations for the 2019 Path of Excellence award is March 15, 2019!  All nominations must include the proper paperwork to be considered.  

Created in 2018, the Path of Excellence honors groups, companies and teams that have played a prominent role in the growth and development of our sport with their exceptional contribution in the form of innovation, performance and/or competitive excellence, leadership, education, safety, sponsorship,  aviation, design/invention and/or manufacturing, sport promotion, photography/videography, and/or philanthropy making them worthy of special recognition. The Path of Excellence Award is specifically for entities – groups, companies, organizations or teams for significant contribution(s) of enduring high value to the world of skydiving and is a prestigious award in both name and distinction. Award nominees will be voted on by supporters of the museum including Ambassadors, Counselors, Trustees, Members of the Hall of Fame, and Major Donors.

The presentation of the Path of Excellence Award will take place during our 2019 International Skydiving Hall of Fame Celebration at Skydive Perris in Perris, CA, October 17 – 19, 2019.
