The Scot of the Year
Since 1988, The Caledonian Society has presented an annual Scot of the Year award at the Burns Dinner. We recognize a person of Scottish descent in Hawaii, who has made contributions to the community and Society.
The Selection Committee reviews nominations for Scot of the
Year based on the following criteria:
nominees need not be Scots, but must be strongly Scots at heart;
they should have made significant contributions to the
community where they reside in Hawaii;
they should have made recognized contributions to the
Scottish Community in Hawaii;
they should show pride in their Scottish heritage; and/or
they should have made significant contributions to the
Caledonian Society of Hawaii.
