The MYCGC Robert Morse Memorial Award would be presented each MYCG Championship in the memory of Robert Morse, former judge and instructor in the New York State pageantry arts for nearly 3 decades. Bob always supported the young people in all the groups he judged and truly loved the activities for what they are supposed to be...for the children and young performers. He tended to always acknowledge and reward the groups that showed progress and growth with pride in their own improvements. Those qualities and the units that displayed them seemed to always be Roberts "favorite" unit to judge. So it is with that thought that the Robert Morse Memorial Award be presented to one MYCGC unit member each season that has shown the most growth from their first show to the last week of the competitive season. This does not have to be in sheer point growth but in maturation of educationally and ethically appropriate means and actions regardless of class, size and origin of the unit.
