Rich School District Superintendent Dale Lamborn and Board Member Eric Wamsley cited Dr. Maughan's passion to provide technical education to students many miles away from BATC's main campus. Among the many special guests were Senator Lyle Hillyard and Representative Mel Brown who cited Dr. Maughan's many successes in convincing the State Legislature to support UCAT initiatives.
A tour of BATC's impressive facilities and equipment preceded a special steak fry luncheon where Dr. Maughan was presented with a special award recognizing his 40-year career at BATC.
