Scugog Mayor Bobbie Drew and council are calling on the community to join in a new initiative called ‘Celebrate Your Community Hero’.
The new initiative this year is in lieu of Scugog’s annual Mayor’s Levee and Honour Roll Awards.
“During the pandemic we know that many community heroes have emerged and stepped up to serve the community,” said Mayor Drew. “A community hero can be a front line worker, a teacher, a neighbour, a business owner, a volunteer or anyone that you feel went above and beyond to support their community or made a difference to you and your family.”
Throughout the month of December, residents have been asked to visit My.Scugog.ca/communityhero to post a story and/or a photo to recognize that special someone they think is a community hero. This New Year, all the heroes will be featured online and celebrated on social media. Each Community Hero will receive a special recognition package including a letter from Mayor Drew, said council statement.
“Thank you Scugog for being you and to all our heroes that taught us that in a time of lockdowns, cancelled family plans and closures; a sense of community is never cancelled,” Mayor Drew.
