Team Toledo Achievement Awards

Team Toledo recognizes the achievements of its members every year.  Nominations for deserving recipients are made from the membership at large, and a final vote is then conducted within the Board for the final recipient of each award.  Members receiving awards are recognized at the annual meeting held in the spring.

Currently accepting nominations for:

The Roseann Peiffer Legacy Award is established to honor the enduring spirit, compassion, and dedication exemplified by Roseann Peiffer, who tragically lost her life on May 31, 2025, while cycling with her community. This annual award recognizes individuals who, like Roseann, demonstrate unwavering commitment to service, a passion for uplifting others, and a profound sense of integrity in all they do. The award celebrates those whose quiet leadership, selfless contributions, and deep humanity leave a lasting impact on their community.


Nominees for the Roseann Peiffer Legacy Award should exemplify the following:


• Service: The nominee should exemplify the true spirit of service through a consistent and humble dedication to others.
• Impact: Their impact extends beyond athletic achievement. Through quiet leadership and steadfast presence their influence ripples outward, making the spaces they touch stronger, kinder, and more inclusive.
• Character: With unwavering integrity, deep empathy, and a truly compassionate spirit, they lead not for recognition, but because it is simply who they are. They treat every person—on and off the course—with respect, warmth, and generosity.
• Legacy: Most importantly, their legacy is one that will last. The lives they’ve touched, the values they’ve modeled, and the example they’ve set will continue to inspire future generations to lead with heart, serve with humility, and live with purpose.
