Distinguished Service Award Deadline

[Dean Romig]

February 28, 2016 is the deadline for nominations for the 'belated' 2015 or current 2016 Distinguished Service Award. Please get your nominations in before it's too late. Please put some good thought into this and be sure that your nominees are those folks who have shown a real dedication to the organization and its membership by their continued actions and deeds.

Please keep in mind that currently seated officers and BOD members are ineligible for this award, but former officers and BOD members are eligible.

Please go to the Home Page and click on the "Awards and Recognitions" tab to learn about the program and how to nominate PGCA Members who you believe are deserving of this coveted award.

[Bill Murphy]

A few years ago, I submitted a detailed nomination for three or four people. I would resubmit it if I can find it. It would be generous of those in charge of these nominations to keep a file of previous nominations.

[Dean Romig]

The "generous" Distinguished Service Committee in fact does keep a 'live' Excel file of all nominations, even on those nominees who are not eligible... keeping in mind that they must be current PGCA Members and that they must meet the criteria spelled out on the DSA page under Awards and Recognitions from the Home page.
However, due to the fact that it is a live file it can not be shared with anyone other than the three DSA committee members. The BOD doesn't even have the file, so please don't anyone ask for it.

We do still have your nominations Bill, but we must also keep in mind that there is a three-year eligibility cutoff so any nominations older than three years will have rolled over into the non-eligible status. If however, that nominee has nominations within the three year cutoff he is still eligible. The two members with the most nomination by February 28 midnight will receive the awards for 2016.

I just looked at the honor roll. What a crew. There are many names that should be there.
Bill- redo your nominations!!!

[Bill Murphy]

Yup, I could do that, but I would have to run a campaign, and I'm not sure a "campaign" on this forum would be allowed. I am satisfied with my original submissions. The committee has enough information to make a decision.

Does the committee re-consider old submissions?

Yes, includes 3 years worth of nominations. This forum entry should provide answers to your questions:

I believe the ones Bill Murphy submitted have timed out. I see his were made in 2011.

I might add that there is much evidence that we should return, at least for a year or two, to the award of more than the small number of awards that we have given recently. We have so many unrecognized heroes that should be included.

Bill, I couldn't agree more with that statement but there are so few members getting involved by the simple act of nominating people that I need to bring this program to the forefront a couple of months before each and every Annual Meeting.... and worse, having to keep bringing it back TTT because "the silence is deafening."

And your first point in this post will be accepted for consideration and will be discussed among the committee.
