The Golden Grizzly Award is selected by votes given by qualified voting members of the GrizzlyChess Club.
Voters should look for good attitude, activity, chess improvement, love, loyalty to the club and respect for all people.
For your Golden Grizzly, pick the members you feel wear their grizzly nic with pride, are a positive example to all, show love for the club and who best represent the grizzly family and grizzly attitude.... and again, grizzlies are not allowed to vote for themselves and blackmail, bribery and corruption are all unacceptable ways of obtaining votes... so behave !!
