The State and International Service Program Awards competitions annually recognize the best programs conducted by local councils in the areas of Church, community, council, family, and youth activities. The international winners are selected from the winning entries submitted by each jurisdiction.

Your council’s Service Program activities should be a source of pride for you and your fellow Knights. Each year state councils honor the best program or activity in the areas Church, community, council, family, and youth at their state conventions. Any council not under suspension is eligible to enter. Each jurisdiction is responsible for selecting the single best Church, community, council, family and youth activity program conducted by an individual council in the 12-month period between the state/provincial conventions.

Each year the top international winners are honored at the Supreme Knight’s Awards Session at the annual Supreme Convention.

Entries are judged first and foremost on the effectiveness of the program. The content of the award application itself, however, is extremely important in conveying to the judges just how effective the program was. A few simple pointers can assist your council in producing winning entries and can improve your council’s chances of being recognized as having some of the best programs Orderwide.
