This honor is offered only at Festival where honorees receive both recognition during the closing awards ceremony and a medal of achievement to commemorate the occasion. Interested Thespians submit their qualifications to their Troupe Director who then verifies eligibility. Don't forget, in addition to verifying eligibility, troupe directors must register their students for this additional honor during Festival registration.
REQURIEMENTS
All applicants must be an inducted Thespian in good standing with a minimum of 60 thespian points. Applicants must also hold a leadership role within their troupe and/or head a committee.
