Distinguished Service Award Nomination Form
The Distinguished Service Award recognizes those people who have made outstanding contributions to the GAC® through volunteer work. This is an award of distinction and is only given for specific exemplary service. The prestige of this award can be kept high if it is presented in small numbers.Guidelines:
- This award is to recognize specific meritorious service to the Association by a member or friend of the GAC®. The aim of the award is to distinguish people who have excelled at a particular volunteer position by doing an exceptional committee function, initiating a new and innovative idea, or making an effort above and beyond that which could be termed "exemplary".
- The award may be specific to a particular event, to a related series of events, or may be made for exceptional contributions over a period of time.
- It is important that the award not be seen to be an automatic reward for performing a specific task (for example being General Chairman of an Annual Meeting), although such service could be considered sufficient for an award depending upon circumstances.

- Deadline for submission of nominations is December Dec. 30 in any calendar year.
