Mayor solicits nominees for 2005 Community Service Awards
INDIANAPOLIS - Mayor Bart Peterson is looking for a few good volunteers to honor with the 2005 Community Service Awards.
The Mayor's Community Service Awards recognize exceptional Indianapolis volunteers for their contributions and commitments to community service.
Eligibility and criteria include:
- The nominee should be committed to improving the City of Indianapolis through personal service to its citizens, while meeting community needs.
- The nominee will be judged on initiative and good work accomplished through service.
- Nominations should be made for direct service, board service or administrative volunteering.
- An individual, agency, corporation or organization may nominate individuals.
- Decisions made by the judges are final.
- Nominees must be residents of the City of Indianapolis.
The nomination deadline is June 15, 2005. Nomination forms are available on the city's website and at Indianapolis-Marion County Public Libraries.
Nineteen local volunteers received 2004 Mayor's Community Service Awards. Since 1993, more than 500 Indianapolis volunteers have been recognized for their contributions and commitment to community service.
All volunteers are honored with personalized, engraved bricks on the Mayor's Community Service Award Plaza, which is located at the northern end of the Downtown Canal Walk and was completed in the summer of 2001.
