The FWSA Safety Award has been graciously sponsored by Aspen Skiing Company since its inception. Lodging for the award has been provided by The Crestwood Resort Condominiums and The Gant.   Lodging for the past awards was provided by: Aspen Square Hotel, Destination Snowmass, The Gant and Daly Lane Properties, The Silvertree Hotel, and the Stonebridge Inn. In the initial sponsor year the award was presented to the winner of a spirited contest for coming up with a slogan. Jo Henry, North Island Ski Club, San Diego Council won with the slogan Ski With Pride, Let It Ride, Watch All Sides. The contest was so competitive, over 130 slogan suggestions were submitted, that Jim Ortiz was recognized for his submission by adding a tag line, First With Safety Awareness. In subsequent years, the award was bestowed for the person within FWSA who does the most to promote safe skiing and safety programs. The winner gets a week of skiing in Aspen with air, lodging, lift tickets, and rentals for two people.
