Dorothy Mauk Pioneer Award

The Dorothy Mauk Pioneer Award is named in honor of the former Denver Post ground-breaking female sports journalist. Dorothy paved the way. And, Betty Myer has contributed to sports in that same selfless, caring, and, pioneering way. Ask Betty her specialty, and she simply answers, “Kids!”, with her boundless enthusiasm. She was Douglas County’s Director of Special Education, and started a local Special Olympics program. Currently, she’s playing on a traveling “65-year-plus” basketball team, beating all comers at racquetball, and volunteering wherever she’s needed.
