Hello, Virginia Libertarians! 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 during the most-recent calendar year (2016, in this case). Are you an LP member? Do you know someone who deserves a bit of recognition for their efforts? Let us know ASAP! secret...@lpva.com. 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 Secretary Jacqueline Passey Mason via secret...@lpva.com. Please email us your nominations by January 1. Remember to specify which of the two awards you intend to nominate (you may nominate candidates for both awards). As long as you send the nomination in by January 1, we will add your nominees' name(s) to the meeting 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. The State Central Committee typically selects the nominee at the first meeting of each year. Your nominations will be provided to all state committee members and will be included in the agenda packet for the first meeting of 2017. Typically, the first meeting of each year will be in January or February. This article is also available at: http://lpva.com/HTML/LeadershipAward.php Thanks!
