Promotions

Promotions to the next higher design level are announced at the last meeting of the year and are based on blue ribbons awarded for designs at monthly meetings and District II or BHGC flower shows.*

Members are promoted to the next higher class only. Promotion to Judges class is under the direction of the NCAGC Flower Show School.

Credits may accumulate over years until the promotion requirement is met, with any excess blue ribbons being credited toward the member’s subsequent promotion. (Awards files should record holdover credits each year to ensure timely promotions.)

Promotion requirements:

Novice to Junior 2 Design Blue Ribbons

Junior to Senior 3 Additional Blue Ribbons

Senior to Advanced 4 Additional Blue Ribbons

*Note: Blue ribbons won in a District II or Beverley Hills Garden Club competition will be credited toward promotions; all ribbons receive credit for awards.
