Upcoming Event Reminder! Date: Wednesday, February 25, 2015 Time: 7:00:00 AM Event: Call for Nominees - LPVA Volunteer Recognition Description: At its January meeting in 2004, the State Central Committee, the governing body of the LPVA, unanimously adopted a resolution declaring the third Monday of February to be "Libertarian Leadership Day". The state committee chooses one outstanding Libertarian activist, declared to be our "Libertarian Leader", as part of its celebration of Libertarian Leadership Day.
In 2014, we decided to establish two recognitions: 1) Libertarian Leader Lifetime Service Award - For those rare activists who have steadily volunteered for LPVA over a period of many years. 2) Libertarian Leader of the Year - Recognizing those who have made extensive contributions to the LPVA in any given year. The State Central Committee typically selects the nominee at the first meeting of each year. All members of the Libertarian Party who reside in Virginia are invited to suggest nominees for each recognition. The nominee must be a Virginia resident, and must be an LP member. If you would like to nominate an outstanding activist for either title, please email the Secretary via or send a letter (to M Montoni, PO Box 864, Dayton VA 22821-0864), and ask to have the person's name added to the Agenda. Please include a brief, one or two-paragraph "activist resume" for your nominee, and perhaps a statement telling us why you think the person deserves to be officially recognized. Your nominations will be provided to all state committee members and will be included on the March meeting agenda. The inaugural "Libertarian Leader" was Ron Crickenberger, who at the time in 2004 was suffering from terminal cancer.
