Nominations for Senior and Volunteer of the year awards now open

Connor Luczka, Echo Correspondent

Each year, Zorra Township Council recognizes two individuals for going above and beyond for their community – and they want to hear from you on who should be this year’s winners.

The Volunteer of the Year award goes to a resident who exemplifies volunteerism and whose efforts have positively influenced the municipality, as does the Senior of the Year award (except that they are 65 years of age or older).

An individual can be eligible for nomination of both awards in the same year; however, will not be the recipient of both in the same year.

If you know someone who has contributed to the township’s arts, literature, community service, volunteering, education, environment, fitness, and humanitarian activities, fill out a nomination form and explain why they deserve to be recognized in 50 words or less. The nomination period closes April 25.
