The Maj Howell Balsem Exceptional Achievement Awards recognize excellence in ten major categories of the CAP Public Affairs Program as listed (See chart):
Proposed NEC Action
The Balsem Awards are judged by a panel of public relations practitioners with expertise in the various categories who are not associated with Civil Air Patrol.
The awards program is administered by a committee of PAOs headed by the National Public Affairs Team Leader and the NHQ Deputy Director, Public Affairs. At least two judges are selected annually in each of the eight categories and the winners are selected based solely on the judges’ view of each entry’s creativity and overall effectiveness, with emphasis on following the four-step planning process.
Proposed NEC Action
The judges may award a first-place Balsem Award, second-place Award of Excellence and third-place Certificate of Merit for each of the 34 categories, OR the judges may opt to not present an award in any category.
More than one first-, second- and third-place award may be selected, as the judges deem appropriate.
All awards are NHQ generated certificates that will be mailed to each award winner’s wing commander for presentation at an appropriate time. Winners will also be announced via a news release.
