2006 | Sally Titus
Introduced to boat racing by her future husband Jeff, while she was attending nursing school in 1960. Sally loved watching the races-a good thing, since boat racing became a major part of Sally and Jeff's marriage.
When she first started working on the judge's stand, there was no APBA Scoring Committee. In fact, Sally was there when a half a dozen scorers got together in the mid-1970s to talk about what they needed, and how they could help each other. Sally has chaired APBA's Scoring Committee for 25 years. During this time, the committee has worked closely with Headquarters to develop scoring procedures, forms and educational materials for APBA's many classes and categories.
She served as Broward Outboard Club Secretary, Fort Lauderdale Powerboat Racing Association Secretary-Treasurer, Region 5 Secretary, Chief Scorer at the OPC National Championships, Chief Scorer for both the IOGP series and the Powerboat Superleague; and as APBA Secretary for 17 years. Sally has worked at countless local events and at the OPC Nationals at Kankakee, Ill., since 1985.
Over the years Sally has received many awards, including the OPC Achievement Award, the Fred Hallett Award, Scorers Achievement Award and APR Sportsmanship Award. She is most deserving of the Honor Squadron award as well.
