Indy: Is this thing on…good. Friends, we now come to the last award of this fantastic night. The Natasha Kashefipour Lifetime Achievement Award recognizes not only a standard of excellence that only a few Rangerphiles have achieved, but it also shows that you have staying power.

This is an award that goes to a veteran Rangerphile who has caught our imagination for years and made an unforgettable impression with their contributions to the community.
