Award Description

The Dis­tin­guished Ser­vice Award is the pre­mier recog­ni­tion giv­en by the Organ His­tor­i­cal Soci­ety for vol­un­teer work by mem­bers of the orga­ni­za­tion. It rec­og­nizes sig­nif­i­cant con­tri­bu­tions of the high­est order for the pro­mo­tion and bet­ter­ment of the Soci­ety. Pro­mo­tion can include note­wor­thy and out­stand­ing con­tri­bu­tions to the pro­grams and mis­sion of the Soci­ety as well as adver­tis­ing and pub­lic relations.

Recip­i­ents must be mem­bers of the OHS who have con­tributed sig­nif­i­cant ser­vice in terms of time, tal­ent, and work – not phil­an­thropy, though it is rec­og­nized that many vol­un­teers also give mon­e­tary dona­tions to the OHS.

Your nom­i­na­tion must be received by mid­night, April 1, 2021. If you send your nom­i­na­tion by USPS it must be post­marked no lat­er than April 1.
