The 2022 Distinguished Service Award and deadlines for nomination

[6pt-Sika]

What’s correct Romig says , “Our slate of candidates is the entire membership of the PGCA.” And Dudley says “Yes Dean, that is all correct and still in effect.


I would like to remind everyone that current serving board members and members are NOT eligible for nomination.

Past serving board members are.” ! Those two statements do not line up .

Look at the first post in this thread. I think the new explanation may be a little different from the previous, but, sitting board members are the only excluded members, I believe.

[Dean Romig]

One of the 'rules' was that currently serving officers and BOD members are not eligible to receive the award but those who have held such positions in the past are certainly eligible. This was posted somewhere, even if only in a notice about the Distinguished Service Award Program that I would have posted more than once in previous years. So it didn't get on the "Awards and Recognition" page on our HOME page. It will need to be included so as to eliminate confusion... Sorry to All but that doesn't change anything because it was publicly posted on the PGCA Forum in more than one previous year.

Sitting board members are not eligible. Members who served on the board previously but are no longer on the board ARE eligible. Hope that helps.

Any body except sitting BOD are eligible then . And I would assume those already having recieved the award aren’t eligible anylonger ?

Former recipients of the DSA are eligible but their three-year accumulation of nominations begins the year following their award year.

This may not have been included in the Home page Awards & Recognition tab.

When I initially read what Brian posted in post at 7:18AM this morning it led me to believe the only ones eligible were past BOD folks . And I quote “ I would like to remind everyone that current serving board members and members are NOT eligible for nomination.

Past serving board members are.”

This is a point that I will have to clarify with the committee and get their thoughts.

Craig, right from the nomination form-


"Members of the PGCA Board of Directors and officers are disqualified from receiving the Distinguished Service Award by the mere fact that they are not considered, for these purposes, to be the regular membership while holding office."

But if one already was presented with the DSA, why do it again?
