Three individuals will be chosen to receive the award through the nomination process.

By nominating an individual, you are helping to raise awareness of the vital role that volunteers play. These awards were created to recognize our volunteers that help advance the development of sports and recreation at the community level.

These awards provide a great opportunity for us to celebrate our resiliency and recognize the volunteers that have contributed hours of service towards recreation/sports activities for children and youth. Our volunteers are essential to the success of our sport/recreation programming here in Town.
