Hi ladies, I'm planning a recognition service and I'm looking for ideas. What have you done for recognition services?

Thanks!

We usually don't have a lot of time, but we try to incorporate our yearly theme in some way.   We always do our Motto, pledge and verse(s).  Sometimes we sing, do sign language to a scripture verse, do a short skit.  And, of course, each girl receives her sash with badges and bracelets.

This year, we will probably use the little ditty that was in the March/April GA World that we were supposed to make up a song to go with it.  I don't have it in front of me.  Anyway, we will probably do it more like a cheer.  We will be singing the song "Love the Love your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U8mr839-TVs
 It goes with the theme pretty good.

We always have a "BIG" recognition banquet in May (on a different night from our regular Wed. night meetings) before the girls get out of school.  This year for "Anchors Aweigh" we will have a year-long cruise theme with all of the different ports of call.   The banquet will be "Dinner with the Captain."  We are fortunate to have a large group (about 50-60) girls.  For the banquet we invite moms, grandmothers, aunts, etc. with a special invite to all WMU ladies.   Dads and Grandfathers are invited to serve as waiters.  We have a slide show of the girls and their activities all year, special music, a wonderful dinner and speaker; then we close with a time of recognition (on the stage) of each girl.  It is at this time that they receive their sashes & badges.  We usually do something a little special for the 5th graders who are leaving to go to the Youth.  Last year we decorated with roses and each girl received a rose to take home. It has become quite a tradition to have a "Ladies Night" to recognize the girls and the ladies who have influenced their lives.
