Awards Committee: The Awards Committee provides a means for SEANC 47 members to recognize other members for outstanding accomplishments and service to the association. It is comprised of a chairman, appointed each year by the District Chairman and two members, preferably from different departments or buildings. Nominations for awards are submitted throughout each year, and judging is conducted by the Awards Committee each year during the month before the annual meeting to determine which of the nominees are most deserving of recognition. A formal presentation for each winner is carried out at the annual meeting. The categories for nominations are as follows: Member of the Year, Distinguished Service, District of the Year, and District Chairperson of the Year. It is not necessary to present an award in each category each year. A Remembrance Presentation is also included to honor deceased members of District 47. These awards will be a line item in the budget.
