Frank P Soldo III Giant of the Year Award

Each year, we recognize a GGRC Member as Giant of the Year.  These are members who have gone "above and beyond" the scope of the typical member.  They exemplify what it means to be a Giant!

In 2015, we renamed the award after a GGRC Member who lost his battle with cancer.  Frank P Soldo III was a GGRC Board Member and Rower who also won the award in 2013.  His attitude and giving nature set the standard by which the Giant of the Year is selected.
