The CALLERLAB Milestone Award is the highest award CALLERLAB can bestow on any individual. The nominee is judged against rigid criteria in five separate categories. A nominee must meet the criteria in all five categories to receive the award. The primary purpose of this award is to recognize those individuals, whether CALLERLAB Members or not, who have made outstanding and significant contributions to the field of square dancing. This is often a difficult decision, for there are many outstanding people in our activity.
The Milestone Award is presented to individuals who have met the following five-point criteria in the field of square dancing and have been selected by the Executive Committee (EC) to be honored in this way. These five points are:
1) The recipient must have worked in UNCHARTED FIELDS.
2) The individual’s contributions to the activity much have STOOD THE TEST OF TIME.
3) These contributions must have been UNSELFISH.
4) In the course of making those contributions, the recipient must have displayed true LEADERSHIP AND PROFESSIONALISM.
5) Finally, the recipient's work must have had a BROAD INFLUENCE on the activity.
