The Carolina Copperheads are proud to honor individuals who do extraordinary things for kids in our communities. As a Non-Profit Organization the Copperheads our huge success is dependant on volunteers. All our volunteers are appreciated and valued. Over the seasons some volunteers dedicate more time and effort to accomplish great achievements that often go unnoticed or are taken for granted. These individuals are not looking for recognition or rewards, but are motivated to serve as leaders for a program they believe in. The Copperheads are proud to attract such fine people to the program.
Thank You for all you do.
This page is dedicated to those volunteers who not only dedicate their time, talents, and skills. But also go over and beyond the role of a volunteer. These individuals are leaders and visionaries dedicated to the Copperheads Mission. These people are what the SCORE Policy is all about, and thousands of children have benefited from their involvement.
In 2006, after 6 seasons, the Carolina Copperheads recognized six extraordinary indivuals who have been dedicated to the league. They are the inaugural members of the Carolina Copperheads Hall of Fame.
