Expanding awareness worldwide about Beloit native Roy Chapman Andrews
The Roy Chapman Andrews Society Distinguished Explorer Award
About RCAS

The Roy Chapman Andrews Society was formed in 1999 by a group of Beloit, Wisconsin residents intent on building more awareness of one of the 20th Century's most famous explorers. Since Roy Chapman Andrews was born and raised in Beloit, it was only fitting that such a society exist in his hometown.
Mission of the Roy Chapman Andrews Society

The Roy Chapman Andrews Society will honor the legacy of Roy Chapman Andrews by: educating the public about Andrews' life, work, and adventures; promoting the value of scientific exploration and discovery; emphasizing Andrews' lifetime ties to Beloit, Wisconsin.
