October 7th, 2011, is the deadline for nominations for this year’s Citizen of the Year. Now is the time to send in your nomination for the person you think truly makes difference.
Who works tirelessly for the community? Who sticks by their convictions and makes a positive difference in the quality of life experienced in this area; or who shines as an outstanding volunteer with a cheerful personality and the ability to get things done?
This is your chance to submit a nomination and recognize one of the many unsung heroes we have in the community. We encourage everyone within the Barriere area to take the opportunity to submit your nominee names. This is your opportunity to recognize the people who truly do make a positive contribution to our lifestyle.
A nomination form can be found inside this issue of the Star/Journal. Cut it out, fill it in, and drop it off at the Star/Journal office. You can also fax it to 250-672-0055, or email to news@starjournal.net.
Deadline for nominations is Oct. 7. All nominee submissions will be voted on by five area organizations and the name of their chosen winner will be published in the Monday, Oct. 24 issue.
The Citizen of the Year is sponsored and supported by the North Thompson Star/Journal, North Thompson Volunteer and Information Centre and the District of Barriere.
