[MysterE]

Hello all -

I like to think of everything in terms of Chairman's Award as a pyramid. We give them stages of information and allow them to choose what they want to use.

At our first stage is our giant binder with the following:
A) Chairman's Information (Essay, Exec Summary, Script of Presentation)
B) Member, Alumni, Mentor, and Alumni Reports. These are both a one page pictogram showing growth and the like as well as in the case of members, alumni, and mentors; individual write ups about each member.
C) Event Summary Reports: A writeup and image from every event we've ever done. If something is multi-year we generally use one summary to talk about it unless there has been growth between.
D) Media and Social Media Report - Infographics that show our media growth and social media growth year by year.
E) Media Summary - Includes every news article, online writeup, company publication . . . you get the idea.
F) Letters of Recommendation - We try to get Letters of Rec. from various people from a wide variety of places (Our School, School Board, State Boards, Companies, Etc.)
G) Appendix - Includes any proclamations or supporting data that we may have.

The next level is our Judge Packet

This is a much simpler packet that generally follows our theme for the year. It generally summarizes the above information in 3 to 5 pages as well as includes the Chairman's Info.

The final level is our Swag

This is always a gift that directly relates to our theme. This year it was a 3d printed stack of totes, last year we didn't really have one. The year before last we used the seed of Giant Red Oaks. They are as small as a grain of sand.


Anyway, hope this helps :-)
