Nominations now open for Volunteer Awards

Volunteers are the heartbeat of a healthy community, and the Township is pleased to recognize outstanding volunteers in our community through the 2023 Volunteer Awards.
Nomination packages are now available, and members of the public are encouraged to get involved by nominating volunteers who deserve to be in the spotlight, whether they coach their kids in sports, help protect the environment, raise money for important programs, or assist those in need.
This year, the awards will be presented on Thursday, April 6, 2023, where an exceptional youth, individual, and couple will be recognized and awarded for their contributions.
Along with the 2022 Eric Flowerdew Volunteer Award which recognizes an individual who enhances Langley’s quality of life, the 2022 - 2023 Pete Swensson Outstanding Community Youth Award will be presented to a student with exemplary athletic and academic achievements, community involvement, and personal qualities, and the 2022 John and Muriel Arnason Award will go to a pair of individuals who volunteer together to make Langley a better place.
Nomination forms and award criteria are available at tol.ca/awards, and nominations must be received by Monday, February 27. Nominations of Grade 11 or 12 students for the Swensson Award must be put forward by their schools.
Recipients will receive $750 to be presented to a recognized charity or society of their choice, or to go towards their education.
