The Community Spirit Awards provides us with an opportunity to recognize a few of the many Oakville residents that contribute to Oakville’s livability. I encourage everyone to nominate and share the stories of those community champions who are truly making a difference in the community.
The Town of Oakville is once again honouring community champions who positively contribute to the life and spirit of the town. Nominations are now open for the 14th Annual Community Spirit Awards recognizing outstanding individuals, groups and businesses in eight categories.
