In 2017, Canada 150 Student Awards were presented to students, selected by the principals at our local schools, who showed Exemplary Citizenship at their school and in the community. This will be continued in 2018 as part of our annual Civic Awards Ceremony.
The Mayor and Council of the Municipality of North Grenville established the Civic Awards Program to recognize and honour the selfless efforts and dedication of outstanding individuals and groups who volunteer in service to our citizens and community.
Since the Program began in 2009, more than 30 individuals and 5 groups have been recognized for their efforts.
