FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
The City of Lebanon will be celebrating volunteerism this spring with the presentation of the Mayor Lyle Anderson Gold Leaf Award for Volunteer Service.
The award is scheduled to be presented by Mayor Jared Carr at the regular city council meeting scheduled for April 26. Two recipients - a youth and an adult- will receive this honor.
To qualify for consideration, recipients must be a resident of Lebanon or the volunteer service must be performed in Lebanon. The youth award is open to youth under age 18 at the time of service and the adult award is open to those 18 and older at the time of service.
Following the presentation of the awards, the 2021 winners will have their name added to a plaque hanging in Lebanon City Hall. Organizers plan to add two new names to the plaque each year going forward. The city's website also hosts a page for the award that features each year's recipients.
The award was established in 2019 and last year’s recipients were Don Anderson, Dustin Bolt and Frederick “Steven” Fries.
Nomination forms can be found by clicking on "Gold Leaf Award" at the city website www.lebanonmissouri.org. The adults for is also available here and the youth form is available here. All nomination forms are due by 5 p.m. April 9.
