AURA Ultra Performance Of the Year Award Nomination

The “AURA Ultra Performance Of The Year” will select the most outstanding performance or milestone achieved by an AURA member in 2022.

The concept of the Award is that nominations for worthy potential recipients will be sought from the existing AURA membership base. The AURA Committee will then short list these submissions to the five performances it believes have most significant merit. These five performances will then be voted on by the AURA membership base.
