Ideal Active Achievement Award

This award was created and the criterion was built by the KKY programs Committee at the 2002 WD Convention in Flagstaff.

The award will be given out three times a year. Nominations are due by June 1st, December 1st, and March 1st. The recipient of the award will be announced over the Western District Listserv and a certificate will be presented to the named active. The recipient will be selected by the WD KKY District Council through nominations from other active members.

This award is a great opportunity to recognize someone in your chapter or another chapter ona a higher level and enables the district to recognize great individuals who contribute so much to Kappa Kappa Psi!
