Nominees sought for youth registration banquet

The Orleans County Youth Board will recognize local citizens at the 24th Annual Youth Recognition Banquet on Tuesday, May 9. This event is an opportunity to thank select individuals for their service to the community.

Awards are given in three separate categories: The Youth Recognition Awards are presented to those youth who have performed an outstanding service for their community and/or have assumed an extraordinary role within their families; the Helen Brinsmaid Award is given to an Orleans County youth-serving professional, in a paid position, whose work surpasses normal expectations; and the Eileen Heye Adult Volunteer Recognition Award is presented to an adult who services the youth of Orleans County in a volunteer setting.

Nomination forms will appear in local newspapers and will be available at local town or village offices and a community-wide mailing with nomination forms and instructions will be conducted. Download forms or request forms at the Orleans County web site: http://orleansny.com. All nominations are due by March 17.
