Local volunteer Lindsay Tribble was presented the town’s Volunteer Achievement Award at the April 27 council meeting.

Carrie Lewis, Chair of the Culture, Heritage and Special Awards Committee, presented the award, while giving an oversight of Tribble’s contribution to the committee.

She described Tribble as “someone whose unwavering passion and commitment has made a profound difference in our community,” and said her volunteer journey has been exceptional.

“She has dedicated countless hours, stepping up when she is needed,” Lewis said.

Tribble is the president of the Tillsonburg District Chamber of Commerce, an entity she has been a long-standing volunteer with. She is a volunteer with the Tillsonburg Hospital Foundation board of directors and served on its Taste of Summer committee. Tribble was president of her condo board, served on the town’s Economic Development Committee and hydro sub-committee, was a member of the original dog park committee and the committee that oversaw the J.L. Scott McLean Recreation Pad.

“Lindsay’s contributions aren’t just measured in years, but in the positive and lasting impact she has had on our community,” Lewis said. “She is a tireless advocate always ready to offer her time, skills and heart to make Tillsonburg a better place for everyone.”
