City to recognize volunteer efforts

To salute those who dedicate their time and efforts to the community, Family and Community Supports Services (FCSS) Lloydminster is asking residents to acknowledge someone they know who volunteers. Whether the individual volunteers once a week or once a year, FCSS Lloydminster wants to bestow a token of appreciation.

“Throughout the year, volunteers selflessly give so much of their time and lend their expertise to the community. They prepare meals at the local shelter, spend time with Littles and run sporting events, among many other things. No matter where you look, volunteers are among us,” says Patrick Lancaster, manager of social programs and services. “It’s important that we recognize our volunteers’ efforts and pay tribute to them.”

Details on the nomination process can be found on the city’s website.

Also, anyone wishing to become a volunteer may find more information on the Volunteer Connector page.

Now an Alberta/Western Canada resident, you would be hard-pressed to find a stronger proponent of Lloydminster than the news guy that appreciates a healthy dose of rock music and dress code leather. His mantra is focus on one thing and do it well.
