NOW ACCEPTING NOMINATIONS FOR THE
2008 FRATERNALIST OF THE YEAR PROGRAM

Woodmen of the World/Assured Life Association is pleased to open nominations for the 2008 Fraternalist of the Year program.  Members interested in nominating someone from their local camp/lodge can do so by submitting the official nomination forms.

The award is given annually to the member who, throughout the past year, exhibited extraordinary acts of fraternalism, provided outstanding volunteer service in the community and uncommon leadership in his/her local camp/lodge.  Information listed on the nomination form should only cover activities for the past 12-month period; one black and white or color photo of the nominee (head & shoulders photo) must be included.  All entries received by May 31, 2008, will be considered by a panel of judges for the top position.

Once Woodmen of the World/Assured Life Association’s top fraternalist is selected, nomination material will be forwarded on to the national Fraternalist of the Year program to be considered for nationwide recognition.  The program, now in its 23rd year, is sponsored by the National Fraternal Congress of America (NFCA), the Association of America’s Fraternal Benefit Societies.  NFCA, which represents 75 member-societies and 10 million individuals throughout North America, will consider nominees from each of its member-societies for the award.

Beginning July 1, an independent panel of judges will review the nominations and select one winner.  NFCA will present the award at its 2008 annual meeting.
