Oswald & James Jacoby Service Award
The Oswald and James Jacoby Service Award (OJJSA), established in 1982, was designed to honor those volunteers who have worked diligently for many years of outstanding service at the unit level, and have risen to recognition at the district level. This prized recognition is District 16's premier service award. A standing OJJSA Awards Committee consisting of past recipients of the award annually reviews information submitted on candidates nominated by units in District 16 and, chooses an outstanding individual for recognition. The committee chairman is appointed by the D16 president. The annual selection is kept confidential until presentation of the award is made at the D16 Fall Regional in Dallas.
