The SAR Youth Education Medal with Lifetime
Achievement Bar: State Societies can award The NSSAR Youth Education
Medal with ‘Lifetime Achievement’ Bar to two individuals annually.
1)
An
SAR Compatriot must have distinguished themselves in bringing the history of
the American Revolution and the accomplishments of our patriot ancestors to
young people by being involved in education outreach activities or by
presenting Education Outreach Programs to our youth for a period of more than
10 years.
2)
Special
Awards of The NSSAR Youth Education Medal with Lifetime Achievement Bar to non
- SAR persons can be proposed by State Societies to the Education
Committee via email request. Requests will detail their rationale for the
presentation and must include 1) who the proposed recipient is; 2) what they
did to earn it; and 3) why they deserve our recognition.
3)
The
Education Committee will vote on a case by case basis whether to approve the
awards for non-SAR persons based on the merits of the nomination and maintain a
file of the recipients.
4)
These non-SAR member awards will count against the State Society’s annual
allotment of 2 presentations of the Medal for Lifetime Achievement.
5)
State Societies will purchase the Youth
Education Medal and the Lifetime Achievement Bar and mount the bar on the drape
prior to presentations within their
states. Recipients will be reported on the Society’s Americanism Report.
6)
The Education Committee will purchase the Youth
Education Medal with the Lifetime Achievement Bar and Certificates for award to
those non-SAR persons it votes to approve the medal for. The Award and Certificates will be mailed to
the nominating State Society.
