SPECIAL  AWARDS - The recipients of the Special Awards will be announced this evening (Sunday) at the dinner.

Samantha Rutherford Memorial Trophy: Awarded to Jacob Wills.
This award was created in 1999, in memory of Samantha Rutherford, who passed away in 1997, aged 16 years. Samantha was a promising and talented accordionist in which music quite often became the most important thing in her life. This award represents her ambition, determination, courage and drive to be excellent. It also represents her love of life, and determination to make the most of each minute. The awards purpose is to encourage young accordionists to achieve, as well as to inspire accordionists to always aim high in their endeavors, as Samantha did. It is sponsored by her mother, Sharon Rutherford.

The Cecil Smith Trophy: Awarded to Travis McWalter.
This trophy is being awarded for a performance during this weekend, (not necessarily a winning performance), that in some special way impresses the audience. Cecil Smith, 1908 to 1989, was born in New Plymouth and lived all his life there. Cecil played the cornet, piano, double bass and accordion amongst other instruments, but the accordion was his favourite instrument. In the last ten years of his life, Cecil played at old folks homes and hospitals, giving pleasure to many thousands of people with his music. Accordion was his main pleasure in later years and he played right up to the time that he passed away. He left his accordion to his grand niece Nicole Phillips and this trophy was donated by his family who wanted to recognise his kindness and generosity and to put a little back into the musical pursuit that Cecil Smith so much enjoyed.

Cocurullo Family Trophy: Awarded to the Panzic Family.
This annual trophy has been donated by the Cocurullo Family of Dargaville as a non musicianship award for services to music. The Cocurullo Family have been prominent in accordion affairs in Northland for many years and the purpose of this trophy is to recognise the important contribution of many non musicians who support this event, working behind the scenes, to make the event possible.
