The Citizen of the Year award is presented each year by the Henderson-Vance County Chamber of Commerce to recognize an individual for their volunteer work to make our community a better place to live.
The criteria used in making the selection includes:
The person must be a resident of the Henderson-Vance County community.
The acts and good deeds for which the award is presented must have been performed for the benefit of Vance County and its citizens.
The community at large should recognize, once the award is made, that it is deserved.
The activities resulting in the award should be regarded outside the recipient’s normal business or profession.
The recipient does not have to be a member of the Chamber.
Call or come by the Chamber office to pick up a nomination form.
