M OAA Chapter Level of Excellence Awards

In 2008, MOAA announced an award for outstanding performance by a Chapter. The Levels of Excellence Awards is an opportunity for chapters to be recognized in one of two categories. Five-star awards will be given to our very best chapters, and four-star awards will be presented to chapters that are doing an above average job. Each Chapter, to be considered, must submit a comprehensive review on their activities for the past year for scoring. The review must include topics such as: a) notification to National Headquarters by the Chapter of the current slate of officers, b) submission of current membership lists, c) appointment of a Legislative Affairs Officer, d) conducting a minimum of 10 events per year, including board meetings and general membership meetings, d) establishing an email point of contact, e) publishing at least six newsletters, f) a required percentage of the Board of Directors to be members of MOAA, g) conducting an active recruiting drive, h) a Personal Affairs program, i) membership in a state Council of Chapters, and other measures of Chapter performance. The submissions are judged in the late summer for the preceding year and the results announced in the fall.
