All members of organizations appreciate recognition for doing good work or going above and beyond the call of duty. The purpose of this section is to give organizations ways in which to recognize outstanding members.
Ways to Recognize
- Say Thanks
- Give them whistles to "toot their own horns for a job well done"
- Give them a Thousand Grand candy bar as "payment for working hard"
- Put a balloon, giant greeting card, phony parking ticket, or gift magnet on an honoree's car with a personal message from you or your organization
- While personalized gifts are always greatly appreciated, they don't have to break the bank. Go overboard affordably with honoree's favorites such as a giant bowl of miniature candy bars
- Present a commemorative scrapbook filled with photos and other memorabilia
- Build a basket of favorites with the recipient's taste buds in mind; Experiment with themes such as a Night at the Movies.
- Put together a relaxation kit for the member who does everything
