Welcome and thank you once again for allowing me to serve as the awards committee chair.  I am pleased to announce several awards available for members in good standing serving under a permanent appointment, and for members who voluntarily retired during the current year. 

Sick Leave Award – There are no deadlines for these awards, and are available to all members. To nominate someone or yourself, simply email Jackson Jones with the name of the member and the number of accumulated Sick Leave Hours.  There are no sick leave reports, so the only way we are able to know who is eligible for this award is when we are notified. Awards are granted to members who, for the first time, have accumulated 1000, 1500, 2000, and 2500 hours of sick leave. Plaques of National recognition are awarded to permanent employees who accumulate 3,000 hours and above of unused sick leave.

 Retirement – MASCOE awards members with 30 years of membership with a plaque upon retirement.  Members with 20 to 30 years service will receive a framed certificate and 20 years or less a certificate.  As with the Sick Leave Award, the only way the awards committee is aware of retirements is when we are notified.  If you know of a member who has retired this year and not been presented a plaque, please let us know by dropping a note by email to Jackson Jones.  If you know of a member with an impending retirement, please let us know timely so we can have the award ready for their open house or retirement banquet. 

  Distinguished Service Awards – These awards encourage recognition of MASCOE/NASCOE members who make outstanding contributions in the area of:

• Service to Agriculture
• Service to MASCOE/NASCOE
• Service to Community.

State Distinguished Service Award winners are automatically nominated for area awards, and Area award winners are automatically nominated for the national award.  The deadline for nominations to be submitted to the State Awards Chairperson is February 1^st.

 To nominate someone for a service awards, access the service award nomination form, http://nascoe.org/Awards.aspx and send it me at the address below.

 First timer award – This award is available to NASCOE members attending their “first” NASCOE Convention.  This is a cash award that will be presented at the convention Awards Banquet.  Packets will be picked up and returned at a time designated by the NASCOE Awards chair.

Extra Mile Award – Any Member of the association may make a nomination.  Parents may submit their children, if they are NASCOE members.  Members or their children who have “gone the extra mile” for their community, church, school or their state, area or national association may be nominated anytime during the year.  To nominate someone you know who has gone the extra mile can fill out the nomination form, http://nascoe.org/Awards.aspx and submit it to me at the address below.
