February is just a short time away. I am asking for nomination letters again this year. If you know someone who has gone above and beyond, and you feel they are deserving of the Americanism Award please send me the nomination letter. Remember this award is not just for members. If you know someone out in the community who has done something that makes them deserving of this honor just write a letter.
The cutoff date for these letters will be January 5, 2023. Please send all letters to:
Darlene Jones
5425 Pine K**b Lane
Clarkston, MI 48346
OR EMAIL at [email protected]
If I do not reply with a thank you please contact me to make sure I received it.
Also, did you know there is a Good Deed Award for youth under the age of 18. If you notice someone doing a good deed please also send me their information and what they did.
GOOD DEED AWARD
