Scope

--- Nominations for the HOF will be submitted by Regions. GPC Area Representatives will be communicating to all clubs who in turn are advised to communicate with other clubs in their Region to determine a worthy nominee for their area. Currently the GPC consists of 6 regions. Click Here to view the regions. Any nomination submitted must come from within their Region.

---Club presidents will submit the nominee along with a bio to their GPC Regional Committee Rep. If they can’t agree on just one, the Committee will accept up to two per Region, but only one will move forward for consideration per region. GPC Reps will both work with and help oversee these nominations in their Regions. This will help ensure the worthiness of these nominations to be on the ballot. Nominations that do not meet the above criteria will not be accepted.

--- HOF members from the nominee’s region may be consulted as part of the vetting process.

--- Voting on nomination acceptance and ballots will be done by the GPC Committee with open voting during our online GPC meetings. The Committee feels that all Regions have the right to nominate any grower who they believe is worthy of this great honor, from within their region, the only exception would be sitting current GPC Committee members, they are not eligible.

It is recommended the length of BIO’s submitted by the regions be no longer than 3 pages. 2 to 3 pages should be ample space to list the grower’s attributes for nomination ballot.

The time for receiving nominations will be from October 15 to Nov 22.

Wizzy, The official GPC website lists the cut off date for 2021 HOF candidate nominations as December 15th.

The PNWGPG has submitted their candidate based on the 12/15/21 cut off date.

Please clarify the date discrepancy between your post stating 12/1/21 as the cut off date and the official GPC website date of 12/15/21 as the cut off.

Thank you,

Gerry
