The Town of Oliver is proud to announce the winners for the 10th Annual Spirit of Oliver Volunteer Recognition Awards as follows:

Individual Youth Member – Kenzie Harrington
Individual Adult – Yvonne Moore
Outstanding Community Group – Oliver Food Bank

“Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has. The time volunteering must be valued but we can never put a value on that time.” said Mayor Hovanes.

The Town of Oliver would like to take this opportunity to extend a heart-felt thank you to our community volunteers who donate their time, skill and experience to support local organizations, businesses and not-for-profit endeavors. Many groups are reliant on volunteers to meet their fundraising goals, deadlines and event staffing requirements. Their success is dependent on these volunteer resources. It is important to recognize these individuals and groups, who give of their own free time to fundraise, improve health, support local business, enhance events and provide positive experiences for our residents and visitors to our area.

Please join Mayor and Council and the past recipients of the Spirit of Oliver Awards, to celebrate and acknowledge the 2014 winners at a public function being held at the Frank Venables Theatre in Oliver, on Sunday, April 12, 2015, from 3:00 pm to 4:00 pm. The awards will be presented at 3:30 pm.
