The nomination form lists three criteria for eligibility:.1) Woman's achievements must have had a significant statewide impact2) Woman's achievements significantly improved the lives of women in Maine3) Woman's contribution has enduring value for women.Nominations have a December deadline of any given year.The first two inductees in 1990 were Mable Sine Wadsworth and Margaret Chase Smith.
