Service '''Awards ''' for service to the Society are granted to members of The Augustan Society, Inc., annually by the [[Board|Board of Directors]]. The web page describing them is at [http://augustansociety.org/cpage.php?pt=112 the main web site].
The Board, meeting in closed session, will select the deserving candidate.
While there is no bar to granting an award to the same individual (or members of a couple) in consecutive years, one might wish to refrain so as to prevent other worthy candidates from being "locked out" until such individual (or couple) are promoted to Metzler awards.
While it is expected that an award will be granted each year, the Board is not obliged to do so.
Upon election:
[[Headquarters Staff]] will send a Letter of notification, with a copy to the [[AugustæumEditor]] Editor.
[[Headquarters Staff]] will also create a [[Certificate of Award]], signed electronically by the [[President]] and [[Secretary]], affix the [[Seal of the Corporation]], and send to the recipient with the above letter.
If the honoree attends the [[Annual Convention]] in the year of any of his awards, the insignia will be given to them gratis (but only once). Otherwise, they may purchase the insignia.
The insignia is a lapel pin, oval, Or gutté de sang, an eagle displayed Sable.<!--: [[image:fas-hc.gif|50px]]-->
It is expected that honorees will be recognized on a permanent plaque to be hung at Headquarters once such a public facility is had.
