[MainstreetTowns] Volunteer Awards

[Jeremy Zeller]

When I was in Guymon last week, a person received the President's Lifetime Achievement Award.  They received a certificate signed by the President and I believe Melyn ordered a pin for him to wear.  I thought it was so cool that I wanted to share the information on how to do the awards in your own communities.  I also want to point out one thing Melyn told me; not to make it as something you give to everyone.  It is a true honor to receive the award.  Here are some standouts that I saw and below that is the website for you to check out.

There are multiple levels for different ages:

                                                BRONZE               SILVER                  GOLD

Kids (5-10)                           26-49hrs               50-74hrs               75+hrs
Teens (11-15)                     50-74hrs               75-99hrs               100+hrs
