Congratulations to Mike Minium!
No one more deserving! Congrats, Mike.
Long overdue and well deserved...congratulations Mike!
Mike is greatly deserving of the Silva award. Mike has done a ton for United States Orienteering and OCIN in particular. He is a great friend, mentor and constant sales person and motivator for youth orienteering and for the life benefits and joy of orienteering for all.
Yes, congrats, Mike! You have been and continue to be an inspiration.
Here's a typical example of Mike's dedication to orienteering:
He's not just "attending" the North American Orienteering Festival, he's there in at least 2 different advisory capacities. Plus, he has a Junior in tow for the better part of the festivities, giving her an opportunity she wouldn't otherwise have had. Plus, Mike and others are making an effort to offer some junior activities after the originally scheduled US junior training camp didn't come together as planned.
Thus, it bears repeating: that's not extraordinary of Mike, that's typical of Mike.
Congratulations!
Thanks, all! I really appreciate this honor and all of your words of support.
Mike is the smiling face of orienteering across Ohio (and elsewhere it seems), and we're glad to have him in the neighborhood!
Congratulations!
Congratulations Mike, you most definitely desire the honor. I know you will continue to work hard for our sport and that is great and it is truly you!
Mike is a superstar in U.S. orienteering. Congratulations, Mike, on the well-deserved (and long-deserved) award!
This is what the Silva Award was made for. Congratulations, Mike.
Congratulations, Mike!! You've always been there to offer energy, inspiration, sage advice and a helping hand. Thanks for all you've done and will continue to do for orienteering. Great photo too!
After all the events he's planned...how come he has no gray hair?
Congratulations Mike!
Congratulations on the award, and many, many thanks for all you've done for orienteering over the years, Mike!
...and keeps doing! Well done, Mike.
