I am pleased to announce that the nomination period for the 9th Annual Stittsville Appreciation Awards is now open!
You don’t have to look far to recognize excellence in our community. It could be a neighbour, a friend, or even a family member. This is your opportunity to bring their special contributions forward.
Nominations must be received by Sunday April 16!
The Roger Griffiths Memorial Citizen of the Year is awarded to an individual who best exemplifies community involvement and participation. The Senior of the Year is awarded in recognition of a senior citizen who has made a significant and long-standing contribution to our community. The Youth of the Year is presented to an individual who contributes leadership, volunteer service, serves as a peer example, and has overcome personal challenges or responds in an emergency situation. The Business of the Year is awarded to a Stittsville business that has contributed significantly to our quality of life. For further qualifications on these awards, I encourage you to visit my website.
Winners will be announced at the Appreciation Awards celebrations, which will be held on Tuesday May 16 commencing at 7:00pm at the Goulbourn Recreation Complex.
