[Missouri-l] Award Nominations

[Denny Huff]

All,

 

            It is time for you to make your nomination for the various
awards that are presented at the annual MCB banquet.  We have received some
nominations already but I am sure there are others that are deserving of
these awards also.  Please look over the award categories below and if you
have someone that you believe is worthwhile to be a recipient of one, send
me your nomination with a short explanation of why you feel this person
should receive the award and the executive board will consider them.

 

The Nathaniel Johnson Award

The Ellis M. Forshee Award

The Darrell Lauer Award

The President's Award

 

The President, First Vice-President, Second Vice-President, Secretary and
Treasurer are charged with the selection of the recipients of all of these
awards,

except the President's Award.

 

Presentation of these awards shall be during the annual Convention banquet. 

 

Criteria for Selection of Award recipients:

 

The recipient of the Nathaniel Johnson Award may be either legally blind or
sighted but shall be a member of MCB. The honoree shall be someone who has
done outstanding work in his/her community, for his/her Affiliate, or for
MCB.

 

The recipient of the Ellis M. Forshee Award may be either legally blind or
sighted. The honoree shall be someone who has done something outstanding on
the state or national level. He/she shall be someone who works with the
legally blind or with legislation for the legally blind. 

 

The Darrell Lauer "Outstanding Leadership Award" will be presented from time
to time, when deemed appropriate, to an outstanding member of the Missouri

Council of the Blind who has shown qualities of exemplary leadership in the
organization and in the community.

 

The recipient of the President's Award is chosen by the President and is
usually presented to a sighted MCB member who has given special help to the
President or to MCB. 

 

Thanks,
