February 26, 2021   ·   0 Comments

Do you know a senior 65 and older who actively participates in the community and has done something outstanding?

The Town of New Tecumseth is seeking nominations for the Senior of the Year award.

The award recognizes a local resident that has enriched the social, cultural, or civic life of the community.

There are a variety of activities that can be recognized as contributing to life in town.

These include work in the arts, literature, community service, volunteering, education, fitness and sports sectors, or with humanitarian activities.

Many seniors participate in programs and activities in the Town and provide their knowledge and skills to help others.

If you know someone who takes the time to participate and make the town a better place, you can nominate them for this recognition for their contribution in making New Tecumseth a nice place to live.

To nominate a senior resident, you should include a written description of the individual with details of what they have achieved through their contributions.

Nomination forms are available by contacting the Town Administration Centre in Alliston, or on-line by visiting the Town website at www.newtecumseth.ca and visiting the ‘living in our town’ portion of the site. There is a category for awards and recognition on that page.

The recipients will be honoured by the Town at an event or meeting to be determined by Council, and submitted to the province for recognition.

Nominations will be received until 4:30 p.m., on Friday, March 12, 2021.
