2006 Civic Awards

The Civic Awards were initiated by the League in 1960, in an effort to focus attention on the often unappreciated efforts by public officials, private citizens, and organizations who have worked to improve local government. The awards are also intended to inspire other public officials and citizens to become more involved in building healthy civic communities.

Each year the League solicits nominations from our members and the community at large. All of the nominees are evaluated by the League nominations committee, which then makes a recommendation on each award for approval by the board.

To look back over the civic award honorees since 1960 is to see the individuals and organizations behind the milestones, the challenges, and the ongoing struggles that have shaped our region's history. Honorees represent a diverse array of the kinds of civic and community leadership that the League - and our society - treasures.

The 2006 Civic Awards event will be an evening reception featuring an awards program and silent auction. It is a great opportunity to honor and mingle with fellow civic minded citizens.
