Do you know an exceptional Cranbrook citizen?

The Cranbrook Chamber of Commerce is seeking nominations for the 2016 Cranbrook Citizen of the Year.

Since 1973 the Chamber has coordinated the nomination process and celebration for the Cranbrook Citizen of the Year Award.

“This is an exceptional award for an extraordinary citizen,” said Chamber President Chris Thom. “If you look at the list of past recipients it is a who’s who of what makes Cranbrook a great place to live, work, and play.”

Chamber members and the public alike are invited to nominate an exceptional individual who through their efforts has made Cranbrook a better place.

Nominators are asked to advance the name of the nominee along with supporting documents outlining the range of community contribution, years of active involvement, and positions held within organizations or groups that benefit Cranbrook.

A minimum of three letters of support are required to accompany the nomination.

The deadline for nominations is Friday, November 25.

Nominations can be emailed to the Chamber, [email protected] or dropped off at the Chamber office at 2279 Cranbrook Street North or mailed to PO Box 84, Cranbrook, V1C 4H6

More information and a list of past recipients can be found on the chamber’s website cranbrookchamber.com/event or by calling the chamber office at 250-426 5914.
