Members of the South Carolina Division
Sons of Confederate Veterans
The Awards Guidelines for 2010 - 2011 have been posted on the web. A copy was forwarded to
all Brigade Commanders for dispatch to their respective camps. Please read the awards criteria
carefully. There have been several changes to the Awards criteria.
The award judging is scheduled to take place around February 2011. The location will be
announced at a later date. Please be advised that all submissions for awards must be sent to me
by February 1, 2011.
Scrapbooks will be judged at this meeting. Please have your scrapbook delivered to the
committee prior to the meeting start. The decision to judge scrapbooks at this meeting was made
to allow the judges the opportunity to participate in convention activities. In the past they forgo
convention activities to judge scrapbooks. If you deliver the Scrapbook in person, remember that
the award meeting is for judges only. You may want to contact your Brigades judge to forward
your scrapbook to the judging site.
The newsletter award has changed in that you need to submit a letter of intent to compete for the
newsletter award. This affords the camp the opportunity to insure their newsletters are arriving.
If a judge does not receive the monthly issue, they will now know to contact the camp editor to
have it sent. Remember that all judges need to be included on your distribution list. The contact
information for the judges is listed in the Awards Guidelines. This change was made so that
they have time to review the newsletters prior to attending the awards meeting. If your camp is
planning on entering the newsletter competition, add all of the judges to your distribution list!
I will accept hand-deliveries, UPS, FedEx, etc. until midnight February 11, 2011. This date may
change when the final awards meeting is confirmed.
