JUDGING CRITERIA:
The merits upon which nominees for the award will be judged have intentionally been left with rather
broad parameters. Generally, the award is intended to recognize good citizenship, which may have
been demonstrated in a number of ways.

As a general guide, youth who have shown exceptional service to their school, social, athletic, civic or
church institutions will be considered. Consideration will be given to individuals who have shown
perseverance and determination, whether of a public or personal nature.

Judges will consider also, a life style, an attitude, or series of small accomplishments that in total
shall be meritorious, on an equal basis with one singular achievement.

Although all circumstances will be considered, it is not a requisite that achievements are made in the
climate of physical or economic adversity.
