(Began January 1, 2008 and runs through December 31, 2008)
See below for 2008 Leader Board, 2008 Rookies and 2007 Winners

To encourage participation, the successful Incentive Points Challenge was begun in 1998. The members or associate members who earn the highest number of points by the end of the year (up to 10th place) receive valuable prizes at the Post-Holiday Party in January. New in 2004 was the Rookie of the Year. This award is for the member that joined in the current year and earns Rookie Points based on Incentive Points earned divided by the time as a member during the year.
