Kamloops, BC—Kamloops City Council is inviting nominations for the City’s Exemplary Service Award. The award formally acknowledges individuals who have dedicated significant time and service in a voluntary contribution to the community’s growth and development and to the well-being of Kamloops citizens. The nomination deadline is 4:30 pm on March 13, 2023.

Exemplary Service Awards are presented in two categories, Young Adults (under 30) and Adults (over 30). Award recipients need to have been residents in Kamloops throughout the time they are being recognized for their service and may not be nominated by a family member. A full list of criteria for consideration is available on the City’s website.

The individuals selected by Council to receive an award this year will be recognized at an awards ceremony on April 19, 2023.

“Kamloops is a great community because of ordinary people who see a need and then do something about it,” said Mayor Reid Hamer-Jackson. “There are so many dedicated volunteers and selfless leaders in our community. I am looking forward to my first opportunity to honour some of them with Exemplary Service Awards. Please take the time to nominate someone who deserves recognition.”
