The Charles-Ritz-Special-Award motivates us very much to continue working on the achievement of our goals: Good ecological conditions and continuity of our waters, healthy and self-reproducing trout stocks in Dosse and Stepenitz, and the sustainable reintroduction of Atlantic salmon in the Stepenitz system. Although we have already achieved some things, it will take decades to finally reach these goals. For this we need many helping hands and financial support. Hopefully, this internationally renowned award will help to enhance our progress.

We dedicate this award to those people who founded our club and support our work with their sweat, heart and time.
