Pavia Council Awards Gallery

Pavia Council has garnered many awards during its long history.  We're beginning a project to image the awards that we can locate; those images will be posted to this hall of fame as they become available.

Star Council - The Star Council Award is the Order's top honor.  The Star Council Award recognizes excellence in volunteer fraternal and charitable activities, membership recruitment and insurance promotion.  To qualify as a Star Council, a Council must meet the requirements of the Columbian Award, Father McGivney Award and Founder's Award.

Columbian Award - The Columbian Award is presented for excellence in volunteer fraternal and charitable activities.  To qualify, a Council must conduct at least 20 different volunteer charitable and fraternal programs — four each in the five categories of Church, Community, Council, Family and Youth activities.

Father McGivney Award - the Father McGivney Award is presented to Councils that meet their membership quota as set by the Supreme Council office.

Founders' Award - the Founders' Award is presented to Councils that meet their insurance member quota as set by the Supreme Council office.
