Orleans County Youth Board plans banquet

The Orleans County Youth Board hosts the 20th Annual Youth Recognition Banquet Monday, May 13. 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. The Eileen Heye Adult Volunteer Recognition Award is presented to an adult who serves the youth of Orleans County in a volunteer setting.

Nomination forms are available at all local town or village offices. In addition, a community-wide mailing with nomination forms and instructions will be conducted. All nominations are due by April 12.
