Zone 3

  • Rebel Of the Year:
  • Volunteer of The Year:
  • Chapter Of The Year:
    • Write Up: Chapter of the Year Nomination 1:
      ICV Heghnach

Chapter of the Year Nomination

The ICV Heghnach has been an active commissioned chapter in Maquis Forces International for 10 years. During that time, we have received numerous awards.

We have been active in doing Community Service and Charity Work putting in up to 300 combined hours per year. Our projects have included the Liver Life Walk for the American Liver Foundation, Adopt-A-Highway, Pittsburgh Race for the Cure, Putt for the Cure, Walk for a Healthy Community, Lee National Denim Day, Scouting for Food, the Pittsburgh Irish Festival, Saint Patrick’s Day Parade, the Pittsburgh Toy Show, and the Pittsburgh ComicCon. We have coordinated with a few ships in Zone 3 to do Intraship activities.

In addition to our monthly meetings, we usually have a social gathering or event to keep busy. We are a “can-do” ship that volunteers wherever and whenever needed. We have undergone many new and wonderful changes in order to increase our membership, retain our membership, and encourage our membership to recruit new members. We were reluctant to change at first, but upon discussion and majority vote, we adopted the changes and are so glad that we did.

At every convention we go to, we ask about volunteering to serve on staff and usually do serve. We strive to promote leadership and encourage each member to take an active part in the organization as soon as possible.

All of the senior officers are active in participating in events and volunteer activities.

Respectfully Submitted,

General K’moghjIH zantai-Ki’RK (Larry D. French, Sr.) DaHar Master Commanding Officer ICV Heghnach

Nomination 2: MFS Exploration: No Write Up Available.


Rebel of the Year: Nomination 1:
I would like to recommend Colonel Kuruk tai-Reshtarc (George Edwards) as Rebel of the Year. Since March 2011, George has been my right-hand man as Helm /Personnel Officer of the ICV Heghnach. He has been invaluable to me making sure that the ship and crew shine as a chapter of the zone.

Kuruk has set some fairly high goals for the chapter to meet and suggested many changes to the chapter as a whole. At first, I was reluctant to make such changes, but George was able to make a strong case for the changes to benefit the chapter for the betterment of all, so I approved them and so did the chapter.

We are like two sides of the same coin. When I first got elected as Chapter Commanding Officer, I wanted to rule the chapter with logic and an iron fist. Colonel Kuruk taught me to be more flexible and fun stating that it would be more acceptable to the crew. I look at decisions from a logical standpoint and he looks at them from a practical standpoint. We balance each other out and he provides me with good counsel, especially when I am faced with a difficult decision. He also helps keep me focused on the task at hand. He helps me combine with fun while still managing to get things done in a timely manner.

He has been put in charge of all personnel matters to include disputes, discipline problems, and duty related matters. He takes care of any problems before I hear about them. If he cannot solve the problem, he makes sure that he consults me either before or simultaneously with the member with the problem and we solve it together.


Respectfully Submitted,


General K’moghjIH zantai-Ki’RK (Larry D. French, Sr.) DaHar Master Commanding Officer ICV Heghnach

Volunteer of the Year Nomination
I would like to recommend myself, General K’moghjIH zantai-Ki’RK as Volunteer of the Year. Most people that know me, knows that I am all about volunteering. I promote volunteering all the time with my chapter. The chapter volunteers up to 100-300 hours per year. Out of that, I volunteer 50-100 hours per year. Some of the volunteer projects that I participate in are the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation Pittsburgh Race For The Cure Site Restoration Committee Co-chair, Putt For The Cure volunteer, Walk For a Healthy Community Volunteer, Lee National Denim Day volunteer, Liver Life Walk for the American Liver Foundation Planning Committee Volunteer Training Chair and Walk Participant, Adopt-A-Highway Project Leader, Pittsburgh Irish Festival Merchandise Sales volunteer, Masonic Child Identification Program Volunteer, Scouting for Food volunteer, Saint Patrick’s Day Parade volunteer, the Pittsburgh Toy Show volunteer, the Pittsburgh ComicCon volunteer, as well as webmaster for several different organizations. I strive to keep the motivation to volunteer up in my chapter and lead by example by setting the standard for volunteering as much as I can and try to get other members to volunteer with me.

Achievement Medal
Nomination

I would like to recommend Colonel Kuruk tai-Reshtarc (George Edwards) for the Klingon Task Force Achievement Medal.

Kuruk has set some fairly high goals for the chapter to meet and suggested many changes to the chapter as a whole. At first, I was reluctant to make such changes, but George was able to make a strong case for the changes to benefit the chapter for the betterment of all, so I approved them and so did the chapter.

We are like two sides of the same coin. When I first got elected as Chapter Commanding Officer, I wanted to rule the chapter with logic and an iron fist.

I look at decisions from a logical standpoint and he looks at them from a practical standpoint.

If he cannot solve the problem, he makes sure that he consults me either before or simultaneously with the member with the problem and we solve it together.
