Nominations are open to name an outstanding volunteer in Port Coquitlam.
The city will accept submissions until March 10 for its annual Volunteer Recognition Awards, which honour residents by category: arts, heritage and cultural awareness; caring and safety; environmental protection and enhancement; sports and recreation; youth programs; youth under 21; and lifetime achievement.
Nominees get a commemorative pin and an invitation to the gala event, held during National Volunteer Week in April. Winners also each receive a personalized etched glass trophy and have their names on the volunteer honour roll at city hall.
Nominees can be any age and don't have to live in PoCo but they cannot have won a previous volunteer award in the city.
Eligibility criteria and online nomination forms can be viewed at portcoquitlam.ca/volunteer. Call 604-927-5410 or email [email protected] for more information.
