April 24th to 30th is Volunteer Week in the Municipality …. a time to recognize the outstanding contribution of volunteers to the vibrancy and growth of our communities and rural lifestyle. Volunteers are special individuals who give freely of their time, talents and enthusiasm for the benefit of others. Their efforts help to support many initiatives, services, events and programs, and sustain us during times of crisis.
If you know an outstanding volunteer in your community who has made a significant contribution to residents of the Municipality of the County of Pictou, we encourage you to submit a brief letter of nomination detailing their efforts. One nominee will be selected by the Municipality for official recognition.
Nomination forms can be downloaded on our website at
https://munpict.ca/.../Volunteer-of-Year-Nomination-Form.pdf and should be addressed to the undersigned and received on or before 4:30 p.m. on Friday, February 11, 2022.
