Registration is required. \n\n\n\n\nGUEST Speaker Dr. Mamie McCullough is an author\, educator\, and motivational speaker. She has entertained and encouraged audiences around the country over fifty years as a keynote speaker. Her dynamic story began in the small town of Dixie\, Georgia. At three-years-old her daddy died\, leaving her mother with nine children under the age of 16. \n\n\n\nAt 20\, Mamie took off in a greyhound bus with a sack of fried chicken\, two flour sack dresses and $25 for Howard Payne University in Brownwood\, TX ‘to be better.’ Mamie is living proof\, “It’s not where you start in life\, but where you finish that counts!” \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe following awards will be presented: \n\n\n\nThe AWARD OF MERIT is presented annually to a DGS member who’s consistently contributed time\, talent\, expertise\, and abilities to the Society over a period of years.

Their contributions stand out. \n\n\n\nThe HERITAGE PRESERVATION AWARD is presented annually to an individual\, group\, or organization in recognition of contributions to preserve\, conserve\, house\, or collect family history. Past recipients in this category cover many varying types of genealogical and historical preservation endeavors. \n\n\n\nThe VOLUNTEER OF THE YEAR AWARD is presented annually to a DGS member who has generously volunteered time\, expertise\, talents\, and abilities to the Society during the previous year to the extent to make that member stand out and draw attention. \n\n\n\nThe LLOYD DeWITT BOCKSTRUCK DISTINGUISHED SERVICE AWARD is presented to an individual for outstanding contributions to the genealogical community on a national level. \n\n\n\nThe PRESIDENT’S SPECIAL AWARD honors individuals or groups whose contributions to the Society that fall outside the criteria for our other awards. \n\n\n\n\nREGISTER
