Texas History Awards
Fund
In
order to encourage and reward participants in the DRT’s Texas
History contests, the DRT has established a Restricted Fund
named the “Texas History Awards Fund.” The principal is to be
maintained in a fully-insured, interest-bearing account drawing
maximum interest commensurate with safety. Only the annual
interest from this fund may be used, and any unused portion of
the annual interest is to be reinvested in the “Texas History
Awards Fund.” The monetary awards shall be presented by the
Fifth Vice President General at DRT’s Annual Convention to:
-
Winner of 4th Grade Texas History Essay Contest: $300
-
Winner of 7th Grade Texas History Essay Contest: $300
-
Outstanding 7th Grade Texas History Teacher Contest: $700
-
Outstanding 4th Grade Texas History Teacher Contest: $700
-
School of each Outstanding Texas History Teacher: $1,000
The
amount of these awards may be increased at the direction of the
BOM when sufficient funds have accumulated in this Restricted
Fund Account.
Each
year annual contributions of $100.00 or more to this fund shall
be recognized in DRT’s Annual Proceedings. By the first of May
(1 May) each year, the Treasurer General shall send one (l) copy
of the names of contributors and amounts contributed by each to
the President General and the Fifth Vice President General. She
shall send two (2) copies to the Recording Secretary General.
The
Education and Flag Committee gladly accepts contributions to the
Fund.
The
committee also sells
-
the
newly reprinted booklet, ”TEXAS AND ITS FLAGS,” $5.00 each
-
White DRT flags 14” by 18” (blue emblem and gold fringe), at
$20.00 each
