The Municipality of Leamington is inviting community members to nominate outstanding individuals, groups, and organizations for the fourth annual Mayor’s Recognition Awards—a program that honours those who have made significant contributions to the community.
The Mayor’s Recognition Awards celebrate excellence in various aspects of community life, from athletics and innovation to volunteerism and youth leadership. The awards recognize those who have gone above and beyond to make Leamington a great place to live.
“Leamington is home to so many remarkable people who give their time, talents, and passion to make a difference,” said Mayor Hilda MacDonald. “These awards are an opportunity to recognize and celebrate those who lead by example, inspire others, and help shape the community we all cherish.”
The awards will be presented in the following categories for contributions made in 2024:
- Athletics Award
- Outstanding Youth Award
- Innovation Award
- Distinguished Volunteer Service Award
- Community Inspiration Award
- Mayor’s Special Award
Recipients will be selected by the Mayor’s Recognition Awards Committee, except for the Mayor’s Special Award, which is personally chosen by Mayor MacDonald.
Honourees will be celebrated at a special Council meeting this spring, where their achievements will be formally recognized.
The nomination period is open from March 19 to April 23, 2025. Community members are encouraged to visit leamington.ca/Awards to learn more and submit nominations.
