Since 1944, the Paul Carrington Chapter has selected a person who exemplifies the qualities of our first President -- leadership, service and duty. The chapter bestows on that person the George Washington Distinguished Service Award. The Award is presented in February to celebrate the birth of our country’s first Commander-in-Chief and President -- George Washington.
The 80th Annual George Washington Dinner will be held on Tuesday, February 13, 2024 at the Junior League of Houston. The evening will commence with a cocktail reception at 6 pm, before sitting down for a multi-course meal at 7 pm. The 80th Annual George Washington Distinguished Service Award recipient is Bert Smith.
The Dinner's proceeds fund the Chapter's military-related activities throughout the year. These includes awarding scholarships to four newly commissioned ROTC cadets and midshipmen from the Houston ROTC Consortium, honoring and providing service to veterans, and supporting our active-duty military service members. In addition, with the proceeds from recent Dinners, the Chapter, working with the Houston Independent School District, awards two scholarships to HISD JROTC cadets each year.
