SANDY NININGER MEDAL MUST BE RECEIVED BY 4:00 PM ON FEBRUARY 21, 2014

International Sandy Nininger’s Life: Alexander R. “Sandy” Nininger was a charter member of the Key Club at Fort Lauderdale High working hard to improve the school’s athletic program with the same dedication he would show for his country. Second Lieutenant Alexander Ramsey Nininger, Jr. was posthumously honored on January 29, 1942 by President Roosevelt with the Congressional Medal of Honor, the highest award for valor in action against an enemy force. Only 94 Congressional Medals of Honors were given during WWI and Nininger was the first in WWII to receive this honor. The First Congressional Medal of Honor of World War II honored Sandy Nininger’s “conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity above and beyond the call of duty in action with the enemy on January 12, 1942.”

The Sandy Nininger Medal: In 1946, Key Club International formally named Lieutenant Alexander R. Nininger, Jr. as the ideal Key Club member. The Sandy Nininger Medal was created in his memory and is awarded to high school graduates who have distinguished themselves by making the most of their opportunities – disregarding any school average or group standard. It honors individuals in terms of their own abilities and weaknesses, opportunities and lack of opportunities. The high school graduate who most exemplifies the tradition begun by Sandy Nininger and has given of themselves “above and beyond the call of duty” will be awarded at the KIWIN’S District Convention with this honorable award.

Criteria:

• • •

The applicant must be in the graduating class of 2014 and be a KIWIN’S member in good standing.

The nominee must not be an officer or KIWIN’S Member of the Year applicant.

The Sandy Nininger Medal Application is recommended to be submitted in a plastic report cover.
