Awards of Bright Hills<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Awards are one of the ways Their Excellencies recognize members of our populace for their service, talents, accomplishments, and contributions to the Barony.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Baronial awards are given at the discretion of the Baron and Baroness, or through the polling process for orders that require it. Some recognize long-term service, while others celebrate excellence in the Arts & Sciences, martial activities, teaching, courtesy, or contributions to the community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You don’t need to be a peer, officer, or long-time member to receive a Baronial award.<\/strong> If someone has made a meaningful contribution to Bright Hills, they may be deserving of recognition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
