Life Member Celebration
The Life Members & Council Membership Awards Ceremony will tentatively take place in the Nancy Watten Technology & Event Center (455 E. La Villita Blvd, Irving, TX 75039) on April 23, 2025. We will send out reminders and further information as the event approaches, but here's the OVERALL STEPS for recognizing your volunteers:
1. Form a Lifetime Membership Committee (LMC). This committee will meet to discuss potential recipients of the award, and solicit nominations from your membership. They can also put forth their own nominations
​
2. The LMC will check the link below to see who has already received an award. Recipients may receive multiple Lifetime Memberships, but ONLY ONE per school. We suggest searching by first or last name on EACH of the alphabet list in the link. Sometime, people have entered in recipients with Mr. or Mrs., which means they're not listed by first name, rather with Mr. or Mrs.
​
​
3. The LMC decides who they will be giving an award to. You may award as many as you like.
​
4. LMC coordinates with the President who is responsible for ordering the awards from TX PTA using their Awards Order Form. The cost for an award is $75+ each plus shipping.
​
5. LMC coordinates with the President how they would like to present their recipients with their awards. We suggest recognizing them at a school event, or grade-level play so that they are recognized in front of their peers. Plus, not everyone is able to attend the Council award ceremony. This is a great time to present them with their certificates and pins that you've ordered from TX PTA in step 4.
​
6. LMC fills out a Google Form from Council PTA (Coming soon) letting us know who is receiving an award. Council will use this information in our presentation at the Ceremony, as we call each individual up to the stage to receive a gift. Deadline to submit this form is TBA
​
7. Council PTA will invite your recipient(s) to the Award Reception.
​
8. Recipients and their friends and family attend the Council Award Ceremony to be recognized with the 24-25 recipients from across the district!
