Our CASCWA Organization annually recognizes key individuals for their outstanding service provided to our CASCWA organization.  The Bay, Delta Sierra, San Joaquin sections each select one person for their prestigious awards.  In addition, the State CASCWA Executive Board selects one individual to receive the state's highest award, the "Lee Lundberg Award."

Lee Lundberg

Lee Lundberg was CASCWA's State President 1977- 1978.  He had a long spanning career with CASCWA. His foresight and leadership in working with the California Legislature and keeping CASCWA in the loop on all legislation matters was legendary. Lee Lundberg set the stage for one of CASCWA’s basic goals as an organization to have a focus on legislation. Many of the subsequent giants of CASCWA were all mentored or influenced by the work of Lee Lundberg.
