Nominations open for Yarmouth volunteer awards
Yarmouth Recreation wants to hear about volunteerism.
Nominations are open for their 52nd annual Volunteer Awards.
Community Engagement Officer Jillian Comeau says they’re looking to recognize people who make the community better.
“There are so many groups and individuals in the area that really work hard at getting jobs done and volunteering in the community, so we want to hear about them,” said Comeau.
One volunteer from the town and one from the municipality will be chosen as provincial volunteer award recipients.
The rest will be honoured at a ceremony in the fall.
“There are a lot of things that can’t happen without volunteers, so getting together on one night a year is a small way to celebrate all of their accomplishments.”
Nominations close April 26, at the end of Volunteer Week.
