This is a reminder to get out and vote for the 2011 Youth Achievement Award! Nomination boxes are available at The Fernie Chamber of Commerce, The Fernie Heritage Library, City Hall, Fernie Secondary School, and the Fernie Academy, as well as online at www.ferniechamber.com.
This award recognizes the contribution youth make to their community and is open to any youth 19 and under, who lives or volunteers in the city of Fernie and surrounding area. This young person has contributed to their community through volunteer service, and has demonstrated leadership abilities.
The award, sponsored by the City of Fernie and the Fernie Chamber of Commerce, is usually presented to a deserving youth at our annual business excellence awards, we’ve decided this year to have it coincide with graduation so the award winner can be recognized amongst their peers. We’re hoping this will create a little more excitement surrounding this award, and a greater number of deserving youth will be nominated.
All nominations must be submitted by June 10th, so please vote today! For more information please contact the Fernie Chamber of Commerce via email at info@ferniechamber.com, or by telephone at 250-423-6868!
