Awards are the Crown’s way of publicly recognizing people for their good works and successes within the Kingdom and Society so they are an important part of the SCA. The SCA is a volunteer organization so awards serve as encouragement for the time and energy we put into making it work.
Awards are given at the pleasure of the Crown, but the Crown can’t be everywhere, or see the contributions of every member of the populace. The only way They know if a gentle is worthy is if They receive recommendations from people such as you.
So research their Order of Precedence, find the most appropriate award and make an award recommendation to the Crown
