Know anyone in the community who goes above and beyond? North Grenville is looking for special people to recognize with civic awards. Cahl Pominville, Clerk, says the awards are a way to honour volunteers in the community.
The age groups are youth (25 and under), adult (26 to 55) and senior (56 and up). Group awards are also handed out in each category. The categories are: arts and culture, exemplary work in the community, environment, health and wellness, heritage and recreation. Pominville says the nominations are easy to fill out.
Canada 150 Student Awards were handed out for the first time last year and will continue in 2018. More than 30 people and five groups have been honoured since the civic awards program started in 2009.
Nominations close April 27 at 5 p.m. For further details, visit northgrenville.ca.
